Sat 8/12 @ 11AM-6PM
The name is the event —We Are the Weirdos Punk Rock Flea Market — is enough to make you want to head down to downtown Akron’s Lock 3 to check it out.
Regardless of how many genuine weirdos show up, it looks like it’s going to be a monster with more than 170 artists, makers and small local businesses from across Ohio as well as nearby states. The organizers are promising they’ll have things such as graphic apparel, vinyl records, graphic novels and comic books, vinyl figures and toys, vintage clothing, plushies and dolls, jewelry, collectibles and — taxidermy. There’ll also be food vendors with baked goods, sweets and vegan teats to supplement the food trucks, pizza, hot dogs and drinks, both alcoholic and non.
It’s free to get in and apparently free to the vendors, which may be why there are so many.
