The weekend market will open on May 12 and May 13 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at its usual 5-25 46th Ave. location. From there, the market will return every month for one weekend until mid-October.

The event also sees dozens of vendors offering a variety of foods like burgers, empanadas, pastries, and oysters.
