Upcoming Event to our area

I've always wanted to host an Arts and Craft Show. Not just a little one with a bunch of friends but a real craft show oozing holiday, music playing, drinks being served, tons of people walking around and great handmade arts and crafts. Well i'm doing it! I'll have to thank my mom for not instilling me with the "ah I'm not sure" gene.

I'd like to introduce Uptown Village Market! This is a show for the shows to come to. Myself and 3 other talented established proprietors and artists are throwing you this festive party!
