Attention vendors!

We have very few spots left in our 2026 Winter Market!

We have anywhere from 1 - 3 spots open in the first 3 weekends and 6 spots open in the 4th weekend.

Application (with info) in first comment.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and you can show your support, celebrate survivors, and remind your friends and family about the importance of annual exams by picking up a custom awareness pin at City Hall. These were crocheted by Santa Bruce, a regular vendor at the Charlestown Pop Up Market.

Just sitting in the parking lot. Taking it all in. And ready for the magic that will be unfolding here before we know it.

Making my way through Winter Market applications. It's a process. Please be patient.

Applications have to be sorted.

Business pages need to be looked at. Sometimes I have to ask for pictures in the case of no business page.

Followup questions are necessary sometimes. Then I wait for an answer lol.

Per our application, the process started September 1. It's a nail biter.

Almost 30 invoices/acceptance emails went out last night. More to come!

All star Winter Market coming to an Activities Park near you soon!

Also, standard disclaimer. Your contact person is Julie Hester. I have my name on all emails and usually "sign" texts. If you get contacted by anyone else, please check with me. Words and warnings like PRIVATE! CONFIDENTIAL! are usually SCAMS! Let's be careful this holiday season. :)

The party is over. :(

Such a fun, fun weekend on The Commons.

We like to do a little video on the closing day of the season for the Charlestown Pop Up Market.

This year I was a little spoiled by a production and planning crew of 1808 Candle Company, Red Headed Princess Designs & Wholly Rustic , and Rack & Crate who started planning Friday night and wow what a cute video! Thanks to Chene' for the videography.

We had our own Saturday Pop Up Market ribbon cutting because we've been waiting for this beautiful space!

We will see you on The Commons next May, 2027!

Thank you so much to every single vendor, every event participant, and every visitor who made this a great season!

Pssst. Christmas is coming!
