Eddy Street Vintage Market, Gardnerville’s original pop-up shop, will celebrate 10 years in business this month with a special anniversary pop-up event, today through Sunday.
The festivities kick off 4-8 p.m. today, with food trucks, live music, and shopping, and continue throughout the weekend.
Located at 1235 Eddy St. in the heart of the Main Street Gardnerville District, Eddy Street
The market is housed in a 1916 Arts & Crafts historic house and features a variety of home décor, vintage furniture, and handmade items.
“We are so excited to celebrate 10 years with the community that has supported us since the beginning,” owner Meredith Fischer said. “Our business has definitely evolved since 2014, but the most amazing part is the number of regular customers who have been with us the entire time.”
The market is a theme-based pop-up shop that opens the third weekend of
every month. The Eddy Street crew transforms 2,400 square feet of retail space
each month to reflect the current theme.
“It’s fun to constantly push the creative limits to see what we can come up with and keep it unique from previous years,” Fischer said. “In celebration of 10 years in business, our theme this month is Dancing Through the Decades.”
The past decade has not been without its challenges.
“We had to work incredibly hard during the COVID-19 restrictions, but with the dedication of our amazing staff, especially those involved in our internship program, we persevered,” Fischer said. “Their commitment and our community's unwavering support have been invaluable.”
Fischer started the business in 2014 in her father, Michael Fischer’s former dental office
building.
“We are fortunate to see anywhere between 700 and 1,000 people over the four days we are open,” Fischer said. “It is definitely not a traditional business model, but it has worked well for us. The changes each month keep people coming back to see what’s new.”
