Summer flea market looking for vendors

The East Lansing Spring Flea Market is open from noon to 4 p.m., Sunday on the corner of Albert Avenue and Charles Street, east of the Marriott East Lansing University Place, 300 M.A.C. Ave.

Exhibits include pottery, jewelry, baby clothes, makeup and CDs. There also will be lemonade and ice cream for sale.

Kelcey Anderson, special events coordinator for East Lansing, said there will be about 35 booths.

“It’s a good opportunity for students who are moving away to sell their things and for students who are coming in to buy them,” she said.

Spaces are still available for $5 each.
