An interior view of [Venue Name]

The Caribbean Street Market is a seasonal community marketplace celebrating Caribbean culture through local vendors, artists, food, music, and family-friendly experiences. The market creates opportunities for small businesses and creative to grow while bringing neighbors together through culture, connection, and sharing space.

Inspired by Traditional Caribbean Markets

Across the Caribbean--from Haiti to Jamaica, Trinidad, and St. Lucia--open-air markets are more than places to shop. They are spaces where culture lives in everyday life: people gather to share food, music, conversation, craftsmanship, and entrepreneurship.

The Caribbean Street Market brings that same spirit to Boston by creating a lively welcoming environment where vendors, performers, and community memebers can connect in ways that feel familiar, joyful, and culturally rooted.

Meet the Founder

The Caribbean Street Market was created by Notchelle (Notty) Pierre, a vibe curator, spoken word artist, and multi-passionate creative dedicated to building spaces where Caribbean, Black, and Immigrant-owned businesses and artists can thrive.

As a creative herself, Notty envisioned the Caribbean Street Market as more than a marketplace--it is a cultural gathering space where entrepreneurship, art, music, and community connection come together. Her goal is to create opportunities for underrepresented creatives to share their work, grow their visibility, and feel supported within a vibrant and welcoming environment.

Through Caribbean Street Market, she brings the energy and spirit of Caribbean street culture into Boston while helping local creatives turn their ideas, talents, and traditions into community impact.

Get Involved

The Caribbean Street Market grows each season and welcomes vendors, performers, volunteers, and community partners to be part of its expansion.
