Downtown Handmade Market, a celebration of handmade artisans, takes place on the First Saturdays of Every Month in the Conti Building on 415 Howe Ave. in Shelton (near Farmer’s Market).
And come summer, people will have another reason to come downtown: free live music.
Celebrate Shelton has announced a “Downtown Sounds Concert Series” which will take place at Veteran’s Memorial Park on Fridays, July 17, July 24 and August 7 from 6 to 9 p.m.
“When we shop local, we are supporting and building opportunities for local entrepreneurs and business owners, strengthening our local economy by creating a more self-reliant and durable community, and empowering citizens to guide the development of our immediate surroundings,” said Mike Skrtic and Nicole Heriot-Mikula, two Shelton business owners who began Celebrate Shelton last year.
Downtown Handmade Market will continue on Saturday, April 4 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Artisans include: Triangle Tea Life, The Liquid Lunch, Stone Gardens Farm, Spoiled, Bowtique by Alexa, Benny The Baker, Lisa’s Soaps, Bel Mare Creations, Reid’s BBQ, Look and Sea, Bead Dangle Design, GPC Designs, The Little Dog Laughed, BooBoo Bags, Hipponotic Candle, Little Bee of CT, BBA Bracelets and TJJ Sews, Origami Owl, Lilla Rose as well as year-round Conti Building shops including bringtheHoopla, The Glass Source Stained Glass Studio, Periodic Tableware, Nikki’s Candy Boutique and Shadee Lady Window Treatments and Interior Design.
