Robin Tenace
Chaos Coordinator

Robin started as a vendor of her textile goods at the Fulton Street Artisan Market back in 2012. She then joined the FSAM committee in 2016 and transitioned to her current position as the Market Coordinator a year later. She loves FSAM and believes it's a wonderful place for artists + crafters to come together and share their passion with the community.
Robin's interest in sewing started at the age of 7 when her Mother handed her a sewing needle, thread, and scraps of fabric. She sat for hours trying to make clothes for all of her Barbie dolls. Her other interests include hiking and outdoor adventures, reading, baking, gardening + growing her own food, and learning how to make new crafts. |

For Melissa, FSAM is a family affair. Most Sundays, her husband and two kids help out. Her son was only two his first season, back before the Market had roof and electricity.
Outside of crafting and her office job, Melissa enjoys cats, music, books, and all things Disney. Her goal is to make the Artisan's Market a fun, friendly, family environment for both shoppers and vendors. |

Kim started selling at the market in 2008, a few years before the Market was remodeled and the vendors had tarps connected from their vehicles to the booth frames. She started making beaded jewelry around that time. In 2010, she started making Kimber's Garden Gems and found her niche.
The Market provides her with an opportunity every Sunday to meet new people, interact with customers and fellow artisans, and make connections for other artisan shows. This is her first year on the committee and she's excited to assist in any way she can! |
