Located on a leafy street in Greenpoint, Brooklyn since 2022, The WonderMart is a community-driven gift shop that exclusively stocks handcrafted products made or designed in NY State, supporting 300+ local indie brands and makers.

We offer a bright and welcoming space where consumers can find unique products and gifts and a platform for talented hobbyists, full time makers and more established indie brands to reach new audiences.

From greeting cards and candles to a full range of functional ceramics (and so much more), our shop has something for everyone - even the folks that have everything. Offering joy and a bit of wonderment in every nook and corner.

100% Local.

Our shop is rooted in New York creativity. We exclusively work with makers who live and create in our home state, bringing together our love of the arts with our belief in the power of meaningful connection. Through The WonderMart, we aim to give emerging brands and independent makers a consistent place to be seen, sold, and celebrated, while making it easier for customers to discover unique, handmade products with a story behind them.

Be Good - Do Good.

We consider the act of giving back to the communities that have given us the opportunity and resources to thrive, a vital part of our business model. Over the years, we are proud to have diverted a percentage of our sales to NAMI, Loveland Foundation Therapy Fund, Brooklyn Community Pride Center, Black Art Futures Fund, Center For Reproductive Rights, The Food Bank For New York City -- and the list keeps growing!

Community Over Competition.

We've built a transparent and equitable platform that encourages makers of all ethnicities and identities to flourish. We seek to create space for others to level up, be heard and connect with like-minded individuals doing big and bold things in this world. By leaning into our individual super powers, it's our mission to inspire fellow business owners and creatives to revel in the power of the collective - to actively share knowledge and resources in order for our communities to rise together and create from a place of abundance.

The WonderMart is owned and curated by New York native Perri Salka.

Born and raised on Long Island, Perri Salka has called New York City home since 2005. A proud graduate of the School of Visual Arts, Class of 2009, Perri has always been deeply connected to the arts and to the creative communities that make New York feel alive.

After experiencing firsthand how challenging it can be to build a sustainable creative life, Perri founded The WonderMart in 2019 as a way to champion independent makers, artists, and small brands. What began in the corner of her living room, with a small selection of locally made goods sold at weekend makers markets, has grown into a beloved Greenpoint storefront. Opened in 2022, The WonderMart is now a go-to gifting destination featuring small-batch products from more than 300 makers and independent brands across New York State.

In 2024, Perri became the lead organizer of Shop Small Greenpoint, bringing her passion for collaboration and local commerce to a neighborhood-wide initiative that supports and celebrates small businesses. Under her leadership, Shop Small Greenpoint launched a digital small business directory, created a WhatsApp group where business owners can stay connected and share resources, and introduced a sponsorship program to support the group’s beloved biannual retail crawl events.

Her work has helped strengthen connections between local shops and residents, encourage people to keep their dollars in the neighborhood, and foster a culture of community over competition. In recognition of her impact, Perri received official proclamations from Council Member Lincoln Restler in 2025 and Assemblywoman Emily Gallagher in 2026.

Today, Perri continues to be a driving force in North Brooklyn’s small business ecosystem, creating opportunities for artists, makers, small businesses, and neighbors to thrive together.

Whether you’re shopping for the perfect gift or just looking for a little treat, Perri can’t wait to welcome you into The WonderMart and help you discover something special.
