Arts District Co-op

Cool place to buy stuff from vendors and artists. There’s clothing, house decor stuff and tons of great earrings. Tons of earrings is not an exaggeration! I got about four pairs of earrings and loved them all. Except for the pair that fell apart when it became unglued. So save your receipts. There’s no bathroom ugh. Parking isn’t really a problem.

90% limited run, original clothing for women in an old warehouse space with high ceilings and soft lighting. The music on the quality speakers further adds to very cozy atmosphere.

One-of-a-kind store in DTLA Arts District. Lots of pop-up shops featuring trendy art, accessories, apparel, etc. I was pleasantly surprised by the moderate price points - for example, several framed pieces of art were under $200. Clothing and accessories were mostly for women. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in the neighborhood. Lots of people just stop by for the Instagram shot, but it’s well worth going in.

It's definitely NOT a vintage/antique flea market or "artistic" kind of thing if you are looking for that. What it is? A small warehouse kind of boutique full of jewelry, clothes, some art, pots and plants, ... Nothing I haven't seen before, not much to nothing "hand-crafted" or unique. Everything is ridiculously overpriced though. Some tiny succulent "arrangements" for $35-95? You can find the exact same at Target and Hobby Lobby for $5-15. Some lame t-shirts and pants that you can find for half the money at regular stores. But because of the "artsy partsy", pretentious setting, some string lights, the neighborhood, the wall art outside (which is the only cool thing there), lots of tourists and the typical Hollywood hipsters they make it seem like some unique attraction. It's not. Drove 45 mins to walk through the whole thing in maybe 5 mins. I was hoping to find inspiration and some vintage bargains, some records, some unique items, something hand-crafted and special... nope. I'd rather go to the Fairfax Flea Market which attracts the same crowd and is overpriced, too, mostly, but at least you have a broader selection. I really don't know why anyone would go there. By the way, even if I was interested in buying something there, where would I pay? It seemed like no one was working there except for two people right when you walked in who couldn't care less about you. So, all in all: Save the trip, don't waste your time and money going there!

As you can see my pic, many people come to this location to take angel photo. Merchandise lineup is also attractive. Good place for art lovers. I’m not.

It’s very artistic for sure. It’s got ~7-10 spots for different “creators”. But most of the products sold there are not really “artistic” or handcrafted. More like cheap products from Taoboa and rebranded to sell at a hippy chic store. Honest suggestion is to not come here

Honestly a little mid. There are some really nice things, but a lot feels like generic and cheap for a high price. The no photos signs are also quite agressive and don’t help you feel welcomed.

Very cool, funky things to look at and buy at this place. Wildly overpriced however.

Funky co-op with lots of fun trinkets. A bit pricey but fun to look around in. Parking is hard to find as there are a lot of spaces here that say no parking but there are definitely cars parked in front of the sign. No taking photos inside (there are a bunch of different signs telling you this) so it's hard to describe what's for sale. Fun to take a gander inside if you happen to be in the area and find a parking spot but probably not the most exciting place to go for specifically since you'd have to fight traffic and very confusing parking rules to get here.

Had lunch at Urth Caffe with my daughter after the gym (still in our gym clothes) while walking back to our car we came across this cute looking store. Walked in, liked some things and bought some things. As we were ready to leave we noticed the wall in the back with the art displays. They have a beautiful piece with what looks like a woman in a turban or headpiece. They also have it painted on the wall. Considering it's permanently on the wall, think safe assumption, the woman behind desk would know the history of the painting. She said she didn't. And not in an I just work here kind of way but in a snobby tone. We got the impression she judged a book by its cover...like I said we were in gym clothes. She made it clear she had no interest in wasting her time on us. I'd like to go back and support the independent artists but not at the cost of a snob. I asked because I was interested in purchasing the painting but not after that encounter.

On Friday, I went here for Art and Fashion attack. It was neither my first nor my final visit. The studio spaces themselves seem amazing, and the building itself is extremely cool. They have an absurd selection of clothing, jewelry, and other items in all price levels and in every possible medium. Last time I bought earrings for my mother and a necklace for my sister; this time I bought a t-shirt. I'll most definitely return!

No photos absolutely not Huge store and over price items Collette Miller wings next door afther took pictures We check the store I bought 2 pair of earrings Only Next time I will bought a mug and stickers

Very cool place. Super eclectic. They have cool art as well as great selection of funky clothes. I bought a really cool shirt. I'll definitely go back.

Like their neighbor, Cleveland Arts, this cooperative contains everything from boutique clothing by local designers to industrial Edison lighting. I liked the vast selection of handmade jewelry for excellent prices. While it wasn't my personal style I'd recommend shopping here for bracelets and stuff before any department store. My favorite things were probably the paintings currently on display. They had Star Wars spins and a whole series of varying sizes of X-men. See the Colossus pic for a prime example: "Moma said knock you out" indeed! The home supplies and serving ware was really nice, featuring brass, and I saw more stuff than I could photograph, but suffice it to say, this place probably has something for everyone.

A cute nifty co-op store in the heart of arts district. Inside a collection of different clothes, trinkets, and succulents that will fulfill your design lust. Truth be told, it's a little bit pricey to purchase anything. It's more of an exhibit than anything.

A fun and cute place to look around if you're in the area but not worth the trip to this area by itself. Some items are very unique - candles, clothing, shoes, etc but other things are just wildly marked up. For example, some of the jewelry items available for purchase are definitely from China (I recognize the labels that the earrings are attached to). They were being sold for $36+ when they could probably be purchased online for $0.30 and I'm not exaggerating. There were also succulent and air plant arrangements that probably cost a kidney ... you know, typical hipster stuff.

Let me get the most obvious complaint out of the way first: Is it a great idea to blast your shoppers with a super-loud rock band in the middle of your store at one in the afternoon? The noise coming out of the Arts District Co-Op is just ridiculous. On a recent pre-Christmas visit, at the back of the store was this terrible band that was like some horrible cliché of bad baby boomer wannabe rockers - all long frizzy gray hair. They played shapeless songs completely devoid of hooks or tunes, but they made sure to play them loud, turning their amps up to eleven so every nook and cranny was filled with their blaring mediocrity. It's a relatively small enclosed space, not Yasgur's farm or Altamont Speedway, so why would a band pack in so many amps dialed to stun? How many sales did The Grate-Filled Duds lose for the proprietors that day? More than a few, I'd wager. Not that the Arts District Co-Op is much better than that terrible band. Signs everywhere tell patrons that no photography is permitted - often not a good omen. There seemed to be no staff in the store save one guy who came up to a display of scented candles as I looked at them and conspicuously fronted-and-faced them - but didn't bother to ask if I needed any help, had questions, etc. (Maybe that terrible loud music had affected his vision.) After he manhandled some candles - mancandled? - he went right back to the register. Uh huh, okay. Whatever - I'm gonna sniff all your stupid overpriced candles and get them all out of alignment, jerk. There are just racks and racks of weird, ugly clothes - it's mostly clothes - and other unappealing stuff (cheap sunglasses, generic "art"). Basically, the Arts District Co-Op made me think, "Oh, so THIS is where all that tacky, overpriced junk lives when it's not on sale at the Renaissance Fair." Co-Op? It's pretty much all Cr-Ap. Just like that terrible music.

Cute place. Cool stuff but overpriced for items that I could find at the swap meet. But the cherry on top was the fact that the owner followed me and my friends around the whole store thinking that we were going to steal. I have no idea why he had to follow US around and no one else in the store. We stated that we felt uncomfortable with him following us but he still kept doing it! Almost made me WANT to steal. Won't ever come back. Be nicer to your customers. UPDATE: the ring I bought turned my finger green.

I'm rating this place with one star because I felt so unwelcome. I was in the area and decided to stroll on in. Please keep in mind that I have never been here. I've never heard of this place. I've never seen it so as I walked in and said hello I also kindly asked what is this place? The woman looked at me like if I was stupid and she answered it's a store. That's all she gave me. Which to me is bad customer service "if it's just a store" SO your working retail then?? Everyone knows if your working retail and you want to make a sale or prevent theft then talk to me and tell me what this magical place is. I work in the same environment. I know for a fact that. That she could of gave me a bit more information on this place she is working in. I doubt I'll recommend anyone to go there.. Oh and I asked if you guys had business cards and she said "we're all out".. When she could of turned it around and said check us out on our website. I just bought a tote bag from one of my favorite artist and left.

I was going to buy a nice candle from here until the employee or manager in charge made me feel unwelcome. I had a backpack on and he just assumed I was going to steal so he preyed behind me and my friend and each candle I touched he anally put it right back, obnoxiously moving it back to its exact centimeter. He made us extremely uncomfortable, yet also it was quite comical.. everytime he fixed the candles, I would walk back and look at them again and then he would passive aggressively move the candles back. We exchanged this several times as he walked behind me and my friend as we shopped. Not a big deal, just saying I wanted to actually buy that candle but he prematurely judged us. He did make the shopping experience entertaining for me haha. If you want a snooty experience with overpriced clothes from China this is your spot! (candles are nice though)

I remember when this place use to be a flea market that opened once or twice a week. It wasn't as organized and there was no cohesiveness but it was the Arts District, it was LA. There has been a handful of improvements since my last visit and I'm glad to see it! There use to be this enormous empty space on the left from the entrance and it was a performance space. There was a piano with a mic stand and a couple speakers. There was no divide or designation between music space and retail space. Retailers used clothing racks and maybe one wall to set the parameters of their shop. Each shop ranged in different sizes which is neither good or bad, it was what gave the entire place a flea market vibe. Now, the moment of walking in, there is a shop left and right. There are tables of jewelry and racks of clothes in every turn. Every inch is utilized to showcase merchandise. I did not keep count as to how many shops were selling before this visit but there must be 5 - 6 main shops currently renting space. It does seem less but each store has a lot more space! Original graffiti and artwork are left untouched. There is even a mini gallery hallway towards the left side from the entrance. This place differently has changed it vibe. It is more boutique-ish and prices may vary but can be compared to that of a shopping mall. The quality is great and there is still a feeling of an Artisan uniqueness to the items for sale. The Arts District is evolving and more and more businesses are planting their roots. This area is awesome for a relaxing Sunday! Shopping here and there, grubbing on delicious food at Urth and sipping on handcrafted coffee and enjoying local graffiti. A visit will not hurt!

My only review because most things are pleasant in life but the owner will mansplain and use his patriarchal power over customers. I accidentally over looked the signs which read "do not take pictures" being a silly head I inadvertently took a picture while trying on sunglasses.. the owner hurriedly walked over to intimidate me and my friend for taking a picture of ourselves.. we profusely apologized and he still continued to reprimand us and humiliate asking us "if we can read?".. while we were leaving he continued to stare at me and my friend all the way well passed the sidewalk across the street. To the owner: I am sorry your son ran away but there is no reason to act a terrible parent to your visitors. Eat shit and die.

Stopped by Urth Caffe and noticed that there was a cute warehouse sale here hidden in the alley and decided to stop by. It's not too overwhelmingly big inside, but it's a cute place to look around in. It's a small warehouse that have different local businesses selling variety of things. Shops included women's and men's clothing (mostly women), jewelry, sunglasses, art, etc. Love supporting local artists and businesses. Found a cute double-layered choker necklace here that I'm obsessed with. Check it out if you're here, you'll never know what you'll find (: Ambience is definitely on the hipster side. Also, there are two angel wing graffiti arts that create for the perfect photo op!

We visited here while waiting for the best distillery tour ever across the street at Lost Spirits Distillery. Could have spent hours longer in this cool spot, and had to choose carefully to not break my bank. That being said, I had to wait for the girl at the register to get off her phone to answer my question, and was never greeted or offered help. Not that I needed it previous to this, but she was clearly occupied our entire visit. Maybe social media marketing? I'll give her the benefit . . . I TOTALLY get why there are no photos allowed in an arts coop though. These are original items, and the point is they do not want their ideas copied. There are so many "complaints" about that, maybe that should be clarified? I love the arts, and I do not NEED to feel welcomed, so I am still giving this cool spot 4 stars because I got what I went in for.

I walked in the store today and walked around the whole store no on ever spoke to me asked if I needed help or anything even when I proceeded to walk out still nothing so I asked the lady and the man if they worked there or if this was there business because I find it so hard to believe no one said a word .. they just stared I said I needed help the lady smirked and said we could help the other guy just looked at me it was bizzare so while I'm writing I see several people walk in and there happily greeted all smiles this place is obviously racist every other person that walked in were non black and looks to be treated very nicely I'm literally sitting right here watching it's disgusting to say the least .. if you're black do not come here I'm not sure what experience you will receive mines was deplorable..

This isn't really a flea market. It sounds like it was at one point, but I wouldn't say it is anymore. Sure, there are used goods you can purchase. However, It seemed more like a crafts fair but fancified. I saw more handmade and original pices. They had entertainment (musical talent) playing inside. There's a couple clothing lines I'm gushing over, but I didn't get the info to buy it online. I'll have to come back for it. They also had the Ridges churro truck at this location the day I went. A cool place to meander if you just so happen to be in the Arts District. Lots of great places to eat and murals nearby as well.

Great location with price friendly options. Fashion, art and live music available. I found a couple things for my girl friend. Prices were pleasantly reasonable. Come, bring a friend, take a few pictures.

Same as all the other reviews, the guy at the front came up to me and my husband and friends while they were trying on sunglasses, very rudely stated "did you not see the sign about pictures?" Even after apologizing he proceeded to stand there and wait for us to leave. Stared at us the entire time and basically followed us out of the store. Most unwelcoming and unforgiving store ever. Would give zero stars if possible.

Horrible experience, horrible management, staff was rude and hovering and disrespectful. Will never return.

I wish I could give ZERO stars! So glad I saw other comments with ppl saying how rude they are there! If you're that miserable at your job stay home? They don't work anyways? Sit behind the register and do nothing? Absolutely rude when I purchased too. No communication. Since they're all rude no one is going to do anything about it either. BUT WE THE CUSTOMERS CAN! Don't shop there! It's because of us these businesses are open? And for us customers During these hard times still give them our business to support local, and they treat us this way? No thank you. Today was my last day visiting there. Done with that place! RUDE!

This place is so adorable. There is a wide variety of items - from women & men's clothing to accessories to art, you really have a lot to choose from! I purchased a cute outfit from Living A Dream Boutique. I walked out wearing it and the guy working helped me get all the tags cut and made sure it was fitting right. I appreciate the extra help! The art work outside of the building is so fun, and I great photo op! I loved that this area was slightly tucked away and less trafficked. Maybe that was because it was a Sunday? But I like to shop when it's less crowded so it was perfect for me! This is a great area to stop and support local artists and vendors!

Nice shop in the Arts District. I think it's a strange choice to not allow photos inside, but whatever. Some people have commented on items being overpriced but I think there were a lot of fairly priced, unique items. The people working there were friendly and there were a lot of nice pillows, sunglasses and t-shirts that were actually on the cheaper side (price-wise, not quality-wise). Worth a stop if you're in the area.

Don't waste your time going to this store where 98% of items there are made in China. I personally purchased a mini robot pendant ($32) not that I needed it but thinking I would actually support a artist who made it. I sadly found this same exact robots on AliExpress and Amazon for $1

This is a really cute venue hidden behind Urth Cafe in Downtown. There are approximately 2 dozen small vendors and they will be here all summer. Cool trinkets and lots of clothes. Most of the clothing here is suited for young hip women. There is 1 men's clothing stand. Other things you will find are: Portrait artiest, iphone/ ipad cameras, furniture, tea, antique arts, etc... etc... etc.. I wouldn't necessarily come here specifically but I would definitely stop by if I were hanging out at Urth. Also, check out the portrait artist, she's pretty cool. :)

Must visit and shop here! You'll find awesome stuff. Art, clothes and many more. If you love vintage antique things or hand crafted art this is the place for you. It's not the biggest place but by far the cleanest and coolest around. Visit this place you'll love it!

This place is nice but it kind of sucks! First off went there to check out the art/stuff for sale and as soon as you get to the entrance it says no pictures allowed. I get that but it is the Art district after all, I wanted to take pics of the inside to share with those who follow me. Not only that was uninviting but the cashier girl didn't even welcome us we had to greet her and that's when she lifted her head and nose out of her phone and acknowledged us. I work in HR/Customer Service so I'm used to always conversing and making people feel comfortable and I did not feel that here. This place is so overpriced and do not recommend it. I think going to an art walk on first Fridays or Thursday's (depending your city) is way better.

Full of little surprises! They now open from Tue-Thur 11-7pm, Fri-Sun 12-8pm! Monday is closed!

We came here when it closed but got to take pictures in front of their store with the angel wings. This place is about 10 minute walking distance from little tokyo. Got to take amazing photos and recommend stopping by here at least once in your life!

One of my fav spots to walk around during my lunch break. Lots of great of mostly women's clothes (a few choices for men and children) and jewelry. Especially when you're looking for something that's not in every chain retail store. All the merchants I've ran into were all very friendly and helpful. On Fridays, there's a regular food truck (bo*he*mi*a) is usually there. Bonus! :) Be sure to check them out during the weekends. Third Saturdays of every month, the Co-op along with local business work together for an event and have more vendors available. Good thing that most of my visits are mostly "window shopping" or else I would be broke. :)))

A nice little warehouse with a different variety of small businesses. The place is well themed to fit the LA urban look. They have a center stage with music playing and where I am amusing will have life performances occasionally. Typical stores inside include women's clothing, men's clothing, jeans, sample sales, jewelery, art, and roadie/fixie bikes.

Quite possibly a money trap for buzzed brunchers and out-of-towners looking for a "hip" souvenir. Not the most welcoming shopping environment with posted signs forbid in store photography, and every product sticker included the line "NO PHOTOS" on the price tag. Yikes. And no returns? Another red flag. While there were some cool items, a lot of the store seemed to be stuffed with cheap mass-produced goods at a mark-up. Case in point: the $55 sunglasses that I easily found for $12-16 at a number of reputable online dealers. The inside felt pretty dingy, with dust and dirt and poor lighting. I guess they're going for a mood? For the prices, you're better off at any number of other boutique stores where you might find something truly unique.

This place was cool but definitely over priced. You won't spend more than 30 minutes in here. The walls outside are cool though. Some of the things they sold were great but just to expensive for what they were.

Really cheap stuff over price and bad customer service . Bought a pair of sunglasses the nose piece broke 3 days later went back and they could not do anything " sorry there is nothing we can do " STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE

This is a really neat shop located in the Arts District. I walked in and immediately feel in love. They have a variety of neat things for sale. I'm a huge fan of WRDSMTH and Colette Miller and I was excited to see that they sold some of there items here. The shop has some great murals outside as well. Great for some photo opportunities.

After going to Urth Caffe, my friend and I were messing around and taking pictures with the awesome graffiti in the alley. We didn't notice the Co-op because it was around 11:45 and it was not open yet, but the guy setting up shop inside saw me taking a photo with some Adventure Time graffiti and asked us if we wanted a picture with the mural inside (because it had Finn in it!). Can I just say...what a cool use of this space this is?! It was so nice of him to let us wander around the floor and check out the cool art and other items the vendors had to offer. I saw a lot of clothes, jewelry, handmade bags, and the like. There are fitting rooms, and a bathroom for convenience. He also told us that the band Palaye Royale was coming to play. I've never heard of them, but they're actually pretty popular according to their YouTube views. The wares they had were not really my thing, but it's well worth a look to support local artists and small businesses. I don't know if "flea market" is really the appropriate name for this place, because it seemed pretty bougie. I guess...flea market for people who hate flea markets? Apparently they'll be open Tuesday-Thursday in addition to their normal Friday-Sunday beginning June 2nd! If you thought the Arts District couldn't get any more hip, wait until you see this.

The Arts District Flea is a newborn baby marketplace, tucked away in the middle of a neighborhood that is undergoing a fresh wave of revitalization. In a few years, it will be rad to look back and see how much more life has developed around it. Just a short walk down the street from Urth Café, and super walkable from the heart of the Arts District Hub (Angel City Brewery, Umami, Pie Hole, etc.) this little flea deserves a visit. Local vendors with fresh takes on everything from trendsetting fashion (@Shywilder) to art work, accessories and a photo booth. The space is spacious and super clean. The parking is plentiful, and FREE on the surround streets. Check it out

VERY POOR QUALITY GOODS. I live around the corner from the Arts District Co-op and stopped in one afternoon and picked up a dress from one of the stores called "Latin Posh" https://www.facebook.com/LATINPOSH. The very first day I put on the jumper the zipper broke. Good thing that I lived around the corner from the Arts District Co-op! I can just drop by and get a refund. Isn't that the point of shopping locally at small businesses? The good thing was the the lady there remembered me. (I had just bought the dress a week ago). The bad thing was that they told me the product was damaged (DUH!) and that it smelled like food and they wouldn't give me a refund or exchange. The Arts District Co-Op sells poor quality goods and unlike other stores that sells things at equivalent prices, they don't stand by their products. Local shopping is about personal quality and creativity. But, they sell poor quality goods here and don't stand by them.

Extremely disappointed!! I took my 3 daughters in hopes to find tons of treasures today. We wanted to walk around and see all the merchandise before buying things and definitely started to find anklets, bracelets, & caps. We got to the section with the children's clothing and my 4 year old found 2 headbands as I found her some clothes. My husband then noticed an older, tall, slender caucasian male salesperson giving us hard looks. There wasn't a mirror in the kids section so I pulled out my phone to use as a mirror to show my daughter how the headbands looked on her. Then the same salesperson jumped on me stating the obvious, "no photos", pointed at a sign in a very derogatory tone. I nicely responded that I wasn't taking photos but he then came back angrily repeating "no photos". I explained again and he yelled "there's a mirror up there" pointing toward the front of the store. His customer service was unacceptable and he was disrespectful. I told my family to turn around and leave the co-op. As I exited I spoke to an asian woman at the cash wrap and her customer service was a bit better but no where near the level of what customers should receive at a place of business. I asked her if the rude salesperson was the manager and she said, "no there isn't a manager". I don't know how this co-op works but regardless the independent business owners should know that they will lose business with a grumpy old man barking at people. Not sure what the "no photos" are about but it's not like we're at Fred Segals.

Very cool store but definitely I wont go there again. The guy from the sunglasses section is an ASSHOLE and total dick!!! I was there with my friend and we had 10 sunglasses in our hands that we were buying... And he saw the sunglasses in hour hands and gave such an attitude! Not professional at all! The sunglasses are around $30 and we thought they are very cool and we would easily buy all of the ones we picked. Maybe this is the price for shopping cheap sunglasses... Im sure in a professional environment we would be treated with respect. Very sad bc 2 min before his attitude i had message my friends about the store. To finish... One HuGe FUCK YOU for that dumb ass guy. I hope all yr sunglasses go straight to yr ass! :)

First off, I must say, I'm not a fan of flea market shopping..... no way! Always thought I would be entering an environment of someone else's cast offs, then they repaired it/washed it or whatever else.... and then it becomes yours....if you buy it. My general ideas were shaped or formed through my mother who loved to go antique shopping. Never could understand why people would like to buy this old stuff....but 'restored" back to its original glory. Really? Only later on, finally realized there is value in these restored items, whether it be clothing or furniture. But what was really really weird, I was passing by this market in the cool and trendy DTLA arts district, on one of those perfect LA weekends and I thought.... "what the hell, I'm not doing anything special today". So I went in, a little reservedly of course. What I found was a lot of people selling really unique and NEW stuff from furniture, to large scale paintings, to clothing, jewelry and some other bizarre stuff I've never seen. WOW! Not what I expected. This does not make me a flea market fien for life.... HELL no. This building is very clean, they play cool music, there are several vendors but it's not jammed packed (thank God... I hate getting lost). Why would I go back ? The really unique jewelry from turkey from a woman who was classy and upscale (beautiful too), and then there's this other guy who is selling one of a kind eyeglass frames ( I WANT ) and then there is another fashionista girl who is selling super cool and NEW clothing that she designed herself. Huh... Not bad..... I'm gonna check up on this market more often, I think I can always find something unique & different & NEW so I can keep up with my image of being classy yet finding unique items that you will never find on Robertson, Melrose or Rodeo Drive.

I think there is a lot of potential here. This is the kind of market I love to support- local artisans selling some really beautiful quality goods, from jewelry, to clothing, candles, and I saw last weekend some pretty bitchin' light fixtures and coffee tables. There's even a bicycle repair shop there! It's pretty small right now, so it wasn't very busy, but I really think it'd be a great destination point for weekenders if they could add more vendors. Having Urth Caffe nearby is definitely helpful in terms of local foot traffic. But however small, they certainly make up for with quality. I really loved all of the vendors' goods. It's not cheap, so 'flea market' might be misleading (also all the products are new or upcycled, so again, misleading), BUT when someone takes the time to design and produce a handmade, quality product you should expect to pay a little more. Plus, you're supporting the local economy. To me, it's win-win :) I will definitely be back!

I wanted to like this market a lot more than I did. The building itself is cute and I think it has potential, but it just felt lacking inside. Most of it was women's clothing, a couple of jewelry places, art, candles and one vintage decor shop in the back corner that did have some great pieces. Nothing else really caught my attention and I didn't think that the quality of the photography prints was good enough to justify the prices. I think if they added more vendors with a bigger variety of crafts, it could eventually catch on. Otherwise, not worth a trip unless you're already in the area.

It's definitely NOT a flea market or vintage/antique kind of thing if you are looking for that. What it is? A small warehouse kind of boutique full of jewelry, clothes, some art and pots and plants - and everything is ridiculously overpriced. Some tiny succulent "arrangements" for $35-95? You can find the same at Target for $5-15. Some lame t-shirts and pants that you can find for half the money at regular stores. But because of the "artsy partsy", pretentious setting, some string lights, the neighborhood, the wall art outside [which is the only cool thing there] and lots of tourists and the typical Hollywood hipsters they make it seem like some unique attraction. It's not. Drove 45 mins to walk through the whole thing in maybe 5 mins. I was hoping to find inspiration and some vintage bargains, some records, some unique items, ... nope. I'd rather go to the Fairfax Flea Market which attracts the same crowd and is overpriced, too, mostly, but at least you have a broader selection. I really don't know why anyone would go there. By the way, even if I was interested in buying something there, where would I pay? It seems like no one was working there except for two people right when you walked in who couldn't care less about you. So, all in all: Save the trip, don't waste your time and money there!

Staff is so unwelcoming, my friend was on her phone just texting and the employee came over to tell her she can't take pictures and basically kicked us out. Everything is extremely overpriced, I can assure you you may find the bracelets online for much cheaper! save your money and time!!

I discovered this flea market by accident since we were looking to find decent parking in order to eat at Urth cafe. The place is small but they have a few interesting vendors but I do wish they had more vendors in their building. This is nice location because it's inside, not outside to save you from the heat or cold. I went for a 2nd visit to find a table that I was interested in, but it was sold. My fault but I'll continue to come because you'll make new discoveries. If you are the first sale of the day the vendors are willing to price things well for you

This place is amazing. I love shopping at Dilussotrends. Every week they have new items of handbags, maxi dresses, jumpsuits and accessories. Understand this is not a flea market but more like Fred Segal downtown. It's very clean. The music is great and tons on near by shops. Each store is a small independent business. You can use cash or credit, 3 fitting rooms and 2 bathrooms. If you do have a chance to stop by. Check out Dilussotrends. They have the best customer service, high quality items at affordable prices and friendly staff.

I had probably the worst store experience in my life while browsing the Arts District Co-op. As my friend and I browsed the sunglasses area in the front of the store, I took out my phone to take a photo of her in this pair she had on and was contemplating purchasing. Almost in an instant one of the workers (a blonde man with an accent who may or may not be the manager of the store) says to us in a very rude manner "Excuse me did you not read the sign". At first we were both confused believing that we were not allowed to try on the sunglasses but then I saw the sign in the front of the store that said no pictures. I quickly apologized realizing that it was my mistake and I should have read the sign. However, after apologizing, he proceeded to stare my friend and I down while standing behind us closely as we continued to browse down the rack. We kept waiting for him to walk away and he continued to peer at us making us both feel VERY uncomfortable. After I realized that he was not going to stop I said to my friend "Okay we should go now" to which he rudely replied "Yeah you should". I am absolutely appalled that a worker could be so incredibly rude to any customer like that. It is very shocking to me that with his awful attitude this place is still in business. Do not waste your time shopping at the Arts District Co-op unless you feel like being harassed by their workers. Pro-tip to the very rude man: Maybe don't work in customer service if you are going to have a nasty and pretentious attitude towards your patrons.
