V-Day Market: You can't go wrong by going the handcrafted route on Valentine's Day, and the excellent New Amsterdam Market is here to help with a special three-day "Valentine's Market & Apothecary" starting on Saturday. Those who can’t wait for spring to shop for artisanal products, food and crafts at the popular open-air market can stock up at their storefront in the South Street Seaport area. Stop by between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. to pick up treats from vendors including Liddabit Sweets, Mast Brother Chocolates, Bellocq Tea Atelier, Nuts + Nuts, The Bent Spoon, Shandaken Bake, LORE, and master hand-set printer Robert Warner.

There will also be a couple of free events throughout the three days (RSVP recommended to info@newamsterdammarket.org), such as a calligraphy class led by Deborah Delaney from New York Society of Scribes, who'll show you how to personalize your Valentine. And on Monday night they'll stay open until 7 p.m. for last-minute love day shoppers. 224 Front Street
