China Exchange’s Made in Chinatown range will take a step into Soho this festive period with a 12-day pop-up shop at 98 Berwick Street. Made in Chinatown brings together artists, community members and volunteers to create unique and beautiful products that share the hidden stories of London’s Chinatown. The products are sold to fund heritage and community projects.
The shop, provided with support by Shaftesbury plc, will showcase the high quality small batch produced Made in Chinatown products including the brand new Layers of Chinatown created through artist Cherie Kwok’s 2022 residency as a pop-up exclusive range.
