The Streetz Artz Alliance returns to Soundgrowler Brewing in Tinley Park this Saturday, March 7, 2026, with a curated Vintage Market that blends nostalgic treasures with many of the talented artists and makers patrons have come to expect from Streetz Artz Alliance events. The indoor market runs from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Soundgrowler Brewing, located at 8201 183rd St., Suite P, and is free and family friendly.

This will be the second time the Streetz Artz Alliance has hosted a vintage-focused market at the brewery. After listening to feedback from last year’s event, curator John E. Streetz made a concerted effort to expand the number of dedicated vintage vendors. More than half of the nearly 40 vendor spaces in the show are now filled by sellers specializing in vintage goods, collectibles, and nostalgic finds, while the rest of the lineup features several Streetz Artz Alliance favorites that regular patrons recognize from past events.

The result is a market that blends old and new in an engaging way. Visitors can explore booths filled with vintage décor, retro collectibles, magazines, vinyl records, antiques, and unique oddities, while also discovering original artwork, handmade goods, specialty foods, and creative items made by local artists.

Several vintage vendors will be bringing expanded displays to the event, with some occupying double spaces to showcase larger selections of their curated pieces. Vendors such as DK’s Vintiques & More, SV Vintage Co, Cupboard Creatures, AntiqueNess Apothecary, FrankenWerks Studios, Roczilla Records, and Topsy-Turvy Totems will be presenting a wide range of vintage items and nostalgic décor that reflect different eras and aesthetics.

DK’s Vintiques & More focuses on vintage and antique items that tell stories from the past, often rescuing pieces that might otherwise be discarded and giving them a new life with collectors and decorators. SV Vintage Co brings together two friends with a shared passion for nostalgic design, offering vintage books, décor, framed art, and playing cards that range from moody vintage aesthetics to cottagecore charm.

Cupboard Creatures blends nostalgia with quirky charm, offering kitschy curiosities, magazines, and collectible home goods that feel both whimsical and a little mysterious. AntiqueNess Apothecary takes a different approach by pairing vintage frames and vessels with botanical elements and curated home décor designed to create warmth and intention within living spaces.

FrankenWerks Studios brings a mix of vintage décor, jewelry, and ephemera along with original creations such as BooBrigade ghost sculptures and playful magnet designs. Roczilla Records will occupy two spaces in the brewery’s back area with a large selection of vinyl records, while Topsy-Turvy Totems transforms repurposed ceramic and glass pieces into decorative totems that function as planters, organizers, or sculptural art.

Alongside the vintage sellers are several Streetz Artz Alliance artists who incorporate vintage inspiration into their work. Libby McArthur Art, who designed the branding for the event, creates original pieces that draw on vintage themes and imagery. Cats, Crafts and Cookies repurposes vintage materials into handmade coasters and decorative pieces. Belonio Doodles will feature original artwork alongside a curated selection of vintage comics.

Visitors can also stop by Ten Cups Tarot for tarot readings using a mix of vintage and modern decks, or explore the nostalgic scents offered by With Love Products, including patchouli, rose, lavender, jasmine, and leather. Patchouli in particular carries a long history, once prized along historic trade routes and later embraced by the counterculture movement of the 1960s.

The event remains rooted in the collaborative spirit that defines the Streetz Artz Alliance. While the vintage theme guides the show, the market also includes a small selection of specialty food vendors, treats, coffee, woodworking, and other artisan goods that help create a well-rounded shopping experience.

Soundgrowler Brewing has also played an important role in making the event possible. The brewery cleared additional space in the back area of the taproom to allow for more vendors, expanding the market to nearly 40 spaces while keeping the entire event indoors. Guests can enjoy Soundgrowler’s craft beers, non-alcoholic beverages, and taco offerings while exploring the vendor booths throughout the afternoon.

The brewery is also featuring its shrimp burrito as the monthly burrito special, and visitors can check out the work of Rich Stachon, Soundgrowler’s featured artist of the month, whose art is currently displayed on the brewery’s feature wall.

Many of the vendors participating in the Vintage Market are local to the south suburbs and surrounding communities, helping give the event a strong local presence while still drawing artists from across the region.

Beyond the shopping experience, many vendors participating in the market also support charitable causes through their businesses and donations. Organizations supported by artists in the show include South Suburban Humane Society, PFLAG, Hello Happiness Creativity Center, Howard Brown Health, the National Black Justice Coalition, The Trevor Project, the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, Best Buddies, Planned Parenthood, Sandy Hook Promise, PAWS, NPR, and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, among others.

The Vintage Market at Soundgrowler Brewing offers a relaxed afternoon where patrons can browse nostalgic treasures, discover new artists, enjoy craft beer and tacos, and support small businesses from across the Chicagoland area.
