When El Sereno resident Luis Moreno opened up his local coffee shop, Mobar & Co Coffee, he decided to set up out front to attract business and comply with local COVID-19 guidelines. Soon, he asked a few local vendors to join him until it grew into what is now a full-fledged night market.
"I asked a few people to join me," says Moreno. "We started with about 3 or 4 vendors, and now we’re up to 22."
Every Wednesday night the El Sereno Night Market occupies the 4900 block of Huntington Drive in El Sereno. It’s 22 vendors includes eateries like Smash Burgers, El Esquite Mexican Street corn, and El Sereno Crepes amongst many others. You can even find candles, jewelry, and clothing, all from local entrepreneurs.
"For El Sereno I think it means a lot, I think it means a lot of change," says Monica Talamantes, who was born and raised in El Sereno. "And it outshines the bad in the community, and it just brings everyone together."
Talamantes is the owner of MamaMia Styles, which is an endeavor she started while working from home. 100% of the profits she receives from her tie-dye shirts and accessories are donated to her daughter’s college fund.
"I’m happy to say we’re bringing some sort of color and energy into the community," says Talamantes.
The El Sereno Night Market is open from 5p-9p every Wednesday night.
