Move over MOMA, the best museum store on the planet happens to be in Surry Hills next week. – 15.07.2010

Third Drawer Down, Australia’s only museum of art souvenirs presents Specific Merchandise, a curated collection of popular culture and handmade design 24th July to the 13th August in conjunction with the Sydney Design Festival.

Specific Merchandise, smack-bang in the centre of Sydney’s design hub in Crown Street, will be the exclusive Australian Launch of New York’s Confetti Systems piñatas and party favours, hand held Japanese sculptures by Magma, and France’s Clémentine Henrion Helium Eternal Balloons.

For 21 days Sydneysiders can experience Third Drawer Down and our design thoughts from around the globe such as Great Big Stuff from the USA, Vik Prjonsdottir’s Icelandic woollens, Denmark’s AIAIAIA headphones, salty caramel chocolate by Brooklyn artisans Chocolate Editions, Art history prints from Serbia and beautiful handcrafted birdcalls from France.

It’s longer than a pop-up, but short enough that if you don’t hurry you’ll miss out.
