Don’t get me wrong — Nashville has tons of great pop-up markets. Porter Flea is always fun, and the Scene’s own craft fair Crafty Bastards just keeps getting better and better. But the crown for pop-up shopping goes to The Wicked Market, a monthly market that takes place every full moon and shines a light on the local makers and businesses who are exploring spooky, beautiful and unexpected corners of the craft and retail world. Some of this year’s participants include taxidermy artist Howl Revival, painter of haunted faces Daryl Wayne and resin artist Krystal Claire Designs. And every market is hosted at a bar or restaurant, so shoppers can also support local folks in the service and hospitality industries while enjoying a beverage.
