The Davis Flea Market happened on a quarterly basis, in March, June, August, and December . It was located at (the old) Third Space Art Collective, 946 Olive Drive in Davis, CA. It was a quarterly affair that brought together members of the community in the spirit of commerce and camaraderie.
It was a social enterprise, promoting sustainability and opportunity. Each season, residents of Davis were invited to apply for a stand at the market where they could sell antiques, vintage stuff, used books, compact disks, furniture, clothing, knick knacks, toys, arts and crafts and electronics. It was a great way to divert clutter from the landfill and into the hands of new owners!
The Davis Flea Market was a place for students, families and professionals, where you could hone your haggling skills, coffee and tea, meet friends and listen to live music. It was like the Farmer’s Market, but for those of us who produce more clutter than cantaloupe.

2012-02-02 11:06:52 I was blown away by the first Davis Flea Market. In the spirit of full disclosure I happen to know one of the directors, but anyone in attendance could confirm how great the event was, bringing so many like-minded-folks together in the spirit of community! Adding live music and a DJ was brilliant, and other decorative touches gave the market a retro/indie feel; when I used to think 'flea market,' I would imagine rows of boring tables in an empty parking lot, but the Davis Flea Market was classy, well organized, and inspiring. —DavidSachs
2012-02-26 18:39:13 Went to the flea market today. Very nice. Thanks for everyone making it happen. Please keep it local, no out of area generic flea market vendors and please turn the music down so that people can hold a normal conversation. Not everyone cares for DJ music. —JimStewart
