Buying handmade local items is the gift that keeps on giving. Not only do you have a product infused with more soul and love than something made in a factory in distant lands, but you become part of a web of local goodness. You help keep dollars circulating where you live.

There are so many holiday pop-ups in the area, but here’s one you can visit over and over and find something new each time.

The Makers Studio is a unique holiday pop-up shop featuring over 70 local makers. Each week for 6 weeks (November 17–December 24) the shop will feature a new selection of locally made art, ceramics, crafts, clothing, bags & totes, home goods, jewelry, woodworks, health & beauty items, and more!

Each week, you can shop Wednesday–Sunday from 9 am–2 pm. On Friday and Saturday nights each week there will be one special event such as a workshop, tasting or demo.
