A Pop-Up Market will debut on Friday, June 23, at the Escanaba Marketplace. It’s an opportunity for vendors to sell their products and shoppers to enjoy a unique open-air market.
Several vendors will be at the Pop-Up Market from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. including photographer Michael Hall with Black Iris Studio, multi-media artist Diane Kribs-Mays and baker Lisette LaFave.
“We are starting with a few people who are willing to put their products on display with the hopes of building an event that becomes popular with both residents and visitors to the area,” said Craig Woerpel, Escanaba Downtown Development Authority.
Pop-up markets are temporary retail space typically used to introduce a new product, gauge consumer interest or generate awareness for a product or cause, Woerpel said.
“The goal is to have people come and look at what is on display,” he said.
Vendors are welcome to set-up at 9:30 a.m. The market opens at 10 a.m.
The Escanaba Marketplace is located at 1501 Ludington Street. The Pop-Up Market is in addition to the Farmers Market that is already underway this season. The Escanaba Farmers Market runs on Wednesdays from 3 to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon.
