Boutique Reservoir & Wood, (featured in our Bites & Sips Gift Guide) popped up Thursday, December 4th at 345 Broome St. for the Young & Able Holiday Series, with tons of independent designers, like Jill Takahashi’s Tiny Beanies, (NY Artist-Made Gift Guide) complimentary drinks & nibbles (homemade with eggs from Erin’s Chickens) and DJ Max Lemberger.

With a dedication to transparency, Young & Able are breaking ground in serving the next generation of designers, makers and creatives by giving them a platform to tell their story and sell their products. In order to truly foster connection in an offline setting, Young & Able founder Rosa Nguyen has launched the three-week long pop-up entitled SERIES which covers all the bases from A-Z. So, in an effort to truly celebrate elements including style, storytelling and shopping, this story SERIES introduces 26 of Young & Able’s participating SERIES pop-up designers who have kindly given us a glimpse into their world.
