“Seasonal SATURDAYS” @ piedmont lane

Every couple months, the vintage experts at The Sunshine Prophecy along with the wonderfully tucked-back music shop Mars Records, host a fantastic outdoor market with rotating vendors, DJs and always-more fun surprises.

Access the magic just behind Dek Doi Cafe and Mille Fiori Flowers, to get yourself into the hidden courtyard, and then slip through Mars into the backyard. Or just stroll through Sunshine for a direct shot to the back! You'll forget where in the world you are. Get yourself to Piedmont Lane and fall right in!
