SHELTON - Shoppers from near and far have fond memories of a monthly handmade market that used to be in the Conti building, 415 Howe Ave.
Well, shoppers rejoice!
The Conti building has announced the introduction of a new market, set to debut from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Oct. 1 to coincide with Shelton Day!
Simply named The Artisan's Market, the event is made possible with the help of a group of passionate small business tenants within the Conti building.
True to its name, the event will feature handmade artisans showcasing their unique products, with direct and easy access from the parking lot entrance.
The Conti building is home to an eclectic mix of community-minded small businesses, each with its own character and passion.
From manufacturing to direct-to-consumer retail, the 150+ year-old building also boasts an independent coffee shop, Shelton’s one-and-only bookstore, and even a haunted house in the basement (seasonal)!
Check out the building’s web site at https://www.415howeave.com/directory/ for an up-to-date directory.
Crafters and artisans interested in participating in October’s market (and any future dates) should contact Kathy Benedetto, co-owner of Legends of the Heart/The Odd Piece, at kbenedetto@yahoo.com ASAP.
Space is limited and going fast!
This is a press release from Written Words Bookstore owner Dorothy Sim-Broder.
