In the 1920s, Kensington Market was known as the Jewish Market;
today it has evolved into a multicultural mix of shops, restaurants,
vintage clothing shops, and eclectic cafes. If you want to take
a trip around the world in a few blocks, feeling a sense of the
city’s rich cultural diversity, Kensington Market is the
place to be.
Shopping is fun, where you’ll find unique stores in a maze
of narrow streets. You can find imported goods from Asia, Europe,
the Caribbean, and the Middle East. There are also a number of
artist studios open to the public. Artists in the market work
with a wide range of media including prints, sculptures and metal
work.
