LIBERTY, Ohio – Celebrating innovation, craftsmanship, artistry and entrepreneurs, the Golden Age Vintage Marketplace will open in April inside Sweet Memories Vintage Tees, 1282 Trumbull Ave., Suite A1.
A limited number of vendor spots remain available for the 4,000-square-foot, secure marketplace, which will bring together antiques, handmade items, vintage collectables and oddities.
“Golden Age Vintage Marketplace was created to give small businesses a real leg up,” said founder Linda Barton. “This is not a weekend pop-up or a temporary market. It’s a secure, permanent space where vendors can operate seven days a week, build consistency, test ideas and grow – just like the entrepreneurs who helped build Youngstown generations ago.”
Through the marketplace, Barton will also celebrate local innovator Nathan Darsky, a Russian Jewish immigrant whose entrepreneurial vision led to the founding of Golden Age Beverages in Youngstown in 1932. A tribute wall will honor Darsky, who revolutionized the soda industry locally.
Applications for vending spaces will be reviewed to ensure a balanced and diverse marketplace, Barton said. She encourages those interested to stop by Sweet Memories Vintage Tees or email her for an application.
The store will have a grand opening celebration at 10 a.m. April 10.
