The Providence Open Market is every Saturday from noon to 4, and features local designers and artists – There are other open markets in New Bedford (see my review) and Boston. Think of them as a farmers market for artists and designers. The vendors vary from week to week and sometimes rotate through the markets so it can be hit or miss. I was lucky to discover Ms Viki who works with suede making handcrafted wallets, card holders, handbags and simple snap bracelets – all in plush colors.
