Annual Parisian flea market will benefit Fair Haven

Fair Haven will hold its largest annual fundraiser, the STAR Bank Parisian Flea Market (PFM) at Clay Terrace in Carmel this Friday, Oct. 4 and Saturday, Oct. 5. The flea market will be open each day from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The store is located on the south end of Clay Terrace behind Luxe Home Interiors.

The seventh annual STAR Bank Parisian Flea Market is a one-of-a-kind shopping event inspired by the eclectic flea markets of Paris that attract treasure hunters from all over the world. It features a unique collection of upscale and hand-selected items including home accessories, furniture, mirrors, chandeliers, dishware, estate jewelry, art and gift items. Volunteer designers from Rowland Design will use their talents to transform the former Kincaid’s restaurant space into a shoppers’ paradise.

Fair Haven hosts PFM annually to support its program to provide a “home away from home” for seriously-ill patients and their families who travel to Indianapolis to receive treatment for cancer, high-risk pregnancy, cardiovascular disease, and organ transplant. More than 250 volunteers work together to make the market a success and introduce Fair Haven’s mission to the community.

Tickets are $5 and will be available at the door. You can also get your tickets at fairhavenfoundation.org. Children age 16 and under can attend for free.
