The Northampton Sidewalk

Looking for color, culture, and craftsmanship?

Positively Africana by Aimee is bringing the beauty of Africa to downtown Northampton for the city’s biggest shopping celebration of the year: the Downtown Sidewalk Sales.

From Thursday to Sunday, find us right in front of Nice Tea at 207 Main Street, directly across from City Hall. Our outdoor pop-up features a curated selection of:

  • Handcrafted jewelry and bold accessories
  • Traditional and modern African fashion
  • Unique home decor, gifts, and cultural keepsakes
  • Limited-edition Aimee Dolls you won’t find anywhere else

Event Hours:

  • Thursday to Saturday: 10 AM – 7 PM
  • Sunday: 11 AM – 5 PM

Rain or shine we’ll be there.

This event is more than a sale. It’s a celebration of African excellence and a chance to experience a powerful story of heritage, migration, and entrepreneurship. Every piece we sell is crafted by African artisans many of them women we proudly support through our mission.

25% of all profits go toward empowering women artists in the Congo. So when you shop, you give back.
