Photojournal: Puces POP Opens Bigger than Before

This year’s Puces POP is the biggest Puce ever. As part of the POP Montreal Festival, arts and crafts fair Puces POP is taking place this weekend in Mile End. Puces POP was started in 2004 and now takes place three times a year. At this installation, more than 140 artisans are packed into the marketplace. They’re displaying all kinds of amazing handmade work, including jewelry, clothing, pottery, soap products, home decor, and much more. Not to mention some delicious snacks! Puces POP is definitely worth checking out if you want to see some breathtaking work by local artisans. This year, POP will be holding a $2 charity raffle for charity LOVE (leave out violence/Vivre sans Violence) Quebec. You can win some Puces POP desirables to raise funds.

Puces POP runs Sept 17-20 at 160 St. Viateur E. Hours are Thursday and Friday, 5 p.m.-9 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m.
