What is the Blackout?

Have you heard of Blackout The System? If not, check out their mission at blackoutthesystem.com

The basic idea is simple but strong: strategically stop spending our money at the giant corporations and big box stores BUT the call to action is even stronger this year......

National Blackout Call to Action

Why? Because too often, the current system is set up to help the wealthiest billionaires get richer, while everyday people struggle.

Celebrate the 10th anniversary of CirculateMKE's Creative Entrepreneur Market this Black Friday, November 28, 2025, from 11 AM to 6 PM. Discover cultural gifts, handmade items, jewelry, original art, clothing, home goods, and more at 3212 W. Center St., Milwaukee. Enjoy food, networking, children's activities, raffles, and community resources while you shop!!

Since we started, our CirculateMKE Black Friday Market 10 years ago it is our way of sparking a 'Blackout'! That is part of our origin story.

When you buy a gift from a local vendor at our market, you are not supporting a faraway corporation. You are supporting your neighbor, your friend, or a family that lives down the street. You are helping a student pay for college, or a parent put food on the table, or a family keep their business open.

We believe that unity is community, and community is power. This Black Friday, don't just shop—make a statement. Invite your friends and family to our local MKE Black Friday Market. Invest your money in the people and businesses that truly care about our city.

See you at the market!
