​CADO Market is a celebration of Black creativity and a platform for growth, all captured in a marketplace experience.

​This year, CADO plans to draw inspiration from the historic Colored Mechanics Fair, honoring the creativity and entrepreneurship of Black artisans, designers, and inventors.

​Our marketplace offers a curated selection of products spanning home decor, clothing, art, jewelry, and more, each crafted with skill and passion. In addition to a marketplace experience - we'll be hosting a day of programming including lightning talks, all centering the Black artisan experience. This year's collaboration with the DesignPhiladelphia Festival amplifies our mission, providing a platform for Black creatives to showcase their talents and connect with a broader audience, fostering growth and appreciation within the community. Join us in celebrating innovation, culture, and community at CADO Market.
