NORFOLK, Va. – New tenants will be coming to Selden Market this winter.

For All Handkind, a collective featuring more than 20 artists with handmade, fair trade and locally-sourced goods, has also been selected as a new incubator tenant. The retailer’s mission is to support new and emerging makers and their practice by giving them a platform to sell handmade goods.

Five percent of each artist’s sales go to a charity of their choice.

For All Handkind has been a pop-up since Selden Market opened in 2017, and it also has a storefront in MacArthur Center.
