The folks behind Copper Carriage, Stephanie and Joe Hunt, are bringing a holiday market to two floors of the Masonic Temple. Get your holiday shopping done early and totally locally as you shop over 40 vendors.

BEGINNING SATURDAY, NOV. 11

This year, Erie's own Copper Carriage is hosting their first Holiday Market at the Masonic Temple in Downtown Erie — a two-day event featuring vendors from all over the tri-state area. Though this is their first Holiday Market, Stephanie and Joe Hunt from Copper Carriage are no strangers to supporting other local business owners, "We've hosted many markets at our antique shop on Chestnut Street, and there we just close down the street to set up the vendors," Stephanie says. "We were unable to host our annual Fall Market this year, so we decided to give a Holiday Market a try."

Featuring more than 40 vendors from the Erie area, Pittsburgh, Ohio, and New York, shoppers can expect a wide variety of options when shopping for holiday gifts.

In attendance will be several vendors selling antique and vintage items, handmade goods, and other artisan products, as well as food and drink. The event's vendors will fill both the upstairs Grand Ballroom and the downstairs Arcadia room of the Masonic Temple, with an elevator for easy access to both rooms. "Our vendors will have a great assortment of holiday decorations and gift giving items for sale," Stephanie says. "We hope everyone comes ready to have a festive time!" 

Saturday and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. // Masonic Temple, 32 W. 8th St. // For more info: coppercarriage.com
