About

The Randolph Street Market Festival is home to the world-renowned Chicago Antique Market, Indie Designer Market, Modern Vintage Chicago and the Holiday Market. As seen in Travel & Leisure, the NY Times, Lucky Magazine and featured on TV news shows and web casts, the Randolph Street Market Festival is considered “a mecca of cool”, “the best hot spot for antiquing”, “the best Chicago venue for people watching”, and “the Barney’s of Vintage”. Celebrity designer Nate Berkus says, “I love this market…the quality is incredible!” As one of Chicago’s most happening monthly parties, Randolph Street Market has become the summer destination!

Named “Top 50 Global Event Planners” in 2002 by Special Events Magazine and recognized as the Midwest’s premier market organizers, Image Pilot’s productions are a favorite destination for merchandisers, decorators, fashionistas and trendsetters from around the globe.

Established by Sally Schwartz in 1985 as Paint Me A Party Productions, the company was renamed Image Pilots in 2002 to reflect a virtual team and a broader focus on trends in marketing and merchandising. Image Pilots is a live event production and consulting firm and the successful group behind the Randolph Street Market, home to the Chicago Antique Market, a monthly indoor/outdoor urban antique and collectibles flea market and the Indie Designer Fashion Market, the monthly hub for emerging fashion talent. Randolph Street Market also serves as producers of the Modern Vintage Chicago, a bi-annual vintage and indie fashion event; and the annual Randolph Street Holiday Market.

A 23-year veteran of advertising, special event marketing, and unadulterated party planning, Sally’s goal is to create legendary business and social events as image building vehicles, high in visual impact and marketing punch.

Hi all, this is Sally, the person who sends you the emails and you see at the front gate, I am the creator, owner and recipient of all bills addressed to the Randolph Street Market. I see it's customary that business owners share their stories and so I shall now. For adults only, I'll see you crossing the street by the way so stop now if you're a prude!!!

Bottom line, I need to have fun - A LOT OF FUN - and any career path I took was going to be in the general direction of downtown FUN CITY!! I think the Randolph Street Market is about the best fun I could ever imagine. It combines the things that are the most fun for me: learning about history, art and fashion; shopping; and socializing with my favorite, most interesting people. What it doesn't do is bore me -- I CANNOT handle boring people or boring places; I am always so happy being home so when I go somewhere it better knock my pantaloons off.

While I now produce this almost 20 yr-old antique market, my professional event career started at age 25 when I opened my own party planning company called Paint Me A Party, renamed in 2000 Image Pilots Global Event Navigators, producers of the "World-Famous Randolph Street Market"! 

But let's go back to a time before big time careers and motherhood, to my childhood as indentured servant growing up in Chicago's northern suburbs. That's where I got my start in the hospitality business as my mother would take me from my comfortable spot in front of the TV and drop me off at her friends' homes, where I was to be "of service" at their dinner parties. I was not asked if I wanted to leave the TV set and spend my Friday and Saturday nights hanging up coats, keeping water glasses full and washing dishes for maybe $5 dollars. 

I'm pretty sure I never actually used soap, just hot water, and once to show the client how much good sanitation meant to me, I went full Christo and wrapped their entire kitchen in Saran wrap including their stovetop, sink and cabinets... they did not value my art installation titled "Meticulous Cleanliness" -- so I was DONE with them!!
