The Canton Main Street Program is sponsoring the first City Sidewalk Sales and Open Air Market on Saturday June 6, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in downtown Canton and Jones Park. Local merchants will be offering in-store discounts as well as sidewalk sale items to shoppers. In addition, vendors, including crafters, antiques dealers, jewelry and furniture makers, and other merchants will also be making their products available for purchase in an open-air market setting throughout the downtown square area.
Three more Sidewalk Sales & Open Air Markets are also currently scheduled for July 11, August 8 and September 12 from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.
“We are very excited to be a part of an idea that was first proposed by two of our very own Main Street members, Shirley Franzoni of Blessings, and Toni Rockhold of Lee Rose,” said Missy Towery, Vice President of the Canton Main Street program. “They have done a tremendous job of getting this project off the ground, and we think these events will be a wonderful way to bring people downtown to shop and enjoy the city, and to give some very talented artisans and dealers the opportunity to sell their wares.”
For more information about the Open Air Markets, or to reserve space in July, August or September, please contact Dana Smith at (309) 647-2677.
