Bizarre Bazaar comes to downtown Mt. Clemens

Most downtown districts hope to attract high-end retail through foot traffic. Downtown Mt. Clemens is turning that bit of conventional wisdom on its head this summer with its new Bizarre Bazaar.

The bazaar is a flea market held in the North Roskopp parking lot from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday during warm weather. The idea is to use it as a way of giving more people an excuse to come downtown, bringing in more foot traffic to patronize the existing brick and mortar businesses.

"We are a great downtown and I think people forget," says Diane Kubik, the Bizarre Bazaar boss and owner of Max & Ollie's Vintage Boutique in downtown Mt. Clemens. "We want to give them another reason to come downtown."

She hopes the bazaar will bring a few thousand feet more through downtown each Saturday to visit the flea market vendors. Vendors can set up shop at the bazaar for between $11 and $22.
