Eastworks Announces Third Annual Holiday Shop

EASTHAMPTON — The Eastworks Holiday Shop is a pop-up shop that showcases the work and wares of Eastworks artists and entrepreneurs. Last year, sales increased over the first year, and this year a continued increase in traffic is expected. The event will again use Suite 136, donated by Will and Paula Bundy, and will be open through November and December, Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

The cost per artist is $40. Participants are asked to work one or two four-hour shifts in the shop and to promote the shop through their marketing and social-media outlets. A fee of 20% from each sale is collected if participants choose not to contribute their time to work shop shifts. Shop participation fees and the 20% contributions are used to buy required insurances for the space (not product), refreshments for Art Walk events, and other promotional and sales materials.

To sign up or for more information, e-mail Carol Ostberg at [email protected]. The deadline is Monday, Oct. 13.
