The Queens Courier announced Friday that the Astoria Flea & Food market—which it organizes in conjunction with the Kaufman Astoria Studios—will be back for its second year.

The market will be open for a shorter season this year and will be held on Saturday nights. It will operate on three late-summer evenings– Sept. 12, 19 and 26 from 6pm to 11 p.m, according to the newspaper.

The market will be held at the Kaufman Astoria Studios outdoor lot—which is located on 36th Street (between 34th and 35th).

Venders will be selling food, antiques, collectibles, arts and crafts, fashion and more.

The Astoria Flea was introduced to the neighborhood last year and represented an expansion of the Courier’s LIC Flea, an event held on the Hunters Point waterfront.

Negotiations regarding the New York State budget have just concluded a few days ago and a budget has passed after more than two weeks of delays. But while Gov. Kathy Hochul has proclaimed this year’s ‘bold agenda’ aims to make New York ‘safer,’ there hasn’t been so much as a whisper about the safety issue New Yorkers actually care about – New York States’s dangerous bail reform laws and the State’s absence of a ‘dangerousness standard,’ which would allow judges to detain without bail those defendants that pose a present a clear and present danger to our communities. (The 49 other states and the federal government have a dangerousness standard. NY State is the only state that lacks this essential protection from the State’s most dangerous offenders.)
