About Melrose Trading Post
Melrose Trading Post takes place every Sunday on the Fairfax High School campus at 7850 Melrose Avenue, near Fairfax Avenue. Greenway Arts Alliance operates it as a community-commerce program that supports arts education at the school. The changing selection brings together vintage fashion, art, antique furniture, handmade crafts, design pieces, and food and drink stalls; the organizer publishes a vendor directory and map to find sellers by category.
Listed regular hours are 10 a.m.–5 p.m., extended to 6 p.m. between Memorial Day and Labor Day. The organizer lists a $6 admission price plus fees and free entry for children under 12 accompanied by an adult; confirm the charge for the specific date. The market opens rain or shine. Limited free valet parking is available on campus, and the organizer also recommends public transportation, identifying bus routes 217, 218, and 10 as nearby options.
Google reviews associated with this location value vintage browsing, the Sunday atmosphere, and the chance to eat during a visit; they also note that the grounds can be busy and neighborhood parking may take patience. Greenway directs proceeds to arts and education programs, which distinguishes the market from a conventional commercial fair. To avoid mismatched expectations, check the map and food vendors listed for that Sunday: neither inventory nor menus remain fixed.
Vintage clothing, local crafts, décor, independent-maker goods, food stalls, and drinks.
