Strange Days is BACK and trust us when we say you do not want to sleep on this one
We want to welcome you to the 3rd Annual Strange Days, one of the most eclectic and carefully curated punk rock art markets around 60+ unique artists, vendors, record dealers, vintage sellers and handmade creators all under one roof just waiting to be discovered.
DJ Black Chair Riot is going to be cranking the energy all day long with MC Lady Bladie on the mic holding it all together, plus live bands are hitting the stage so clear some space because things are going to get loud and we are not sorry about it
Got a soft spot for animals? Us too; We are running tattoo and art raffles all day long with every single dollar going straight to the Cumberland Valley Animal Shelter so you can shop hard and feel great about it.
Entry is just $5 and kids 12 and under get in FREE so get here early because the FIRST 100 people score a FREE tote and nobody wants to be number 101
The Amvets will be hosting a cash bar with cold beers and cocktails because the best kind of shopping is always done with something cold in your hand.
There will be live tattooing and piercing happening throughout the entire show so come ready to leave with something permanent.
We also brought in some seriously amazing food trucks to keep your belly happy while you wander around and take it all in.
