About The New jersey Punk Rock Flea Market.
The New Jersey Punk Rock Flea Market is a no-holds-barred, DIY-fueled celebration of creativity, chaos, and community founded right here in the dirty Jerz and proudly expanding way beyond our Trenton roots. We throw down up to five times a year, curating an event that’s part craft fair, part subcultural playground, and all New Jersey attitude.
We pack the place with 100’s of vendors, makers, artists and small businesses from over 35 states and Canada, offering a glorious overload of:
Original art & prints
Handmade bath, body & witchy goods
Handmade Jewelry, candles & apparel
Taxidermy, bones & oddities
Vinyl, cassettes & vintage media
Retro toys, comics, collectibles & spooky stuff galore
Oh, and you might just bump into an occasional celebrity guest or two… because we like to keep things loud, weird, and a little unpredictable.
This all started in 2013 with Joseph Kuzemka, an award-winning event producer, former Trentonian Person of the Year, and lifelong champion of the arts, punk rock, and community-driven chaos. His mission? Create an inclusive, affordable, first-class platform for independent makers while throwing a damn good party at the same time. His merry band of cohorts, otherwise known as the NJPRFM CREW, help him bring these crazy ideas and expo’s to life!
At the NJPRFM, everyone is welcome, except hate. We proudly support Black Lives Matter, LGBTQIA+/Pride/Trans rights, and any human who believes in lifting others up. If you’ve got a problem with that, don’t come. It’s that simple.
Hatred can stay at home. We strongly condemn all forms of xenophobia, racism, homophobia, transphobia, Islamophobia, intolerance, antisemitism and genocide.
So whether you're looking for your next favorite piece of art, a hand-poured candle that smells like Satan’s basement, or just an excuse to eat from 12 food trucks in one day… we’ve got you covered.
Ready to join the madness? Great! We now own your soul.
