Scoping out the goods and shopping with a clean conscience at the Hongkou flea market
The monthly Hongkou flea market organized by Gongyijia (???), focuses on arts and crafts, and second hand, repurposed and recycled items. Proceeds from the event go to help migrant school children.
"The idea is to make charity fashionable, make friends and share the kindness," says volunteer Nicholas Tang (???). And judging by some of the vendors' wares (hats with attached spectacles, anyone?), they're on their way to doing just that.
The next markets are scheduled for March 12 and April 16.
