In-person Chicago Holiday Pop-up Shops

Chicago Makers Pop-up Shop 

Nov. 1 – Dec. 31, Wicker Park

The idea to create the Chicago Makers Holiday Pop Up Shop happened the first time Anna Romo and Monica Little (owners of @virtuealchemycandleco and @shopplantbasedbeauty) grabbed a coffee on October 14. By October 25 they had the keys to an empty space in 1279 N Milwaukee Ave and by November 1st they opened their doors! With the help of their family, friends, vendors, and community they built shelves, tables, displays and filled the shop with unique products! They feature 27 small businesses, 24 of which are women-owned, as well as Latinx, Black, Asian, and LGTBQ business owners! Every weekend features two Meet the Maker spotlights from 12-4 for our small businesses to connect with the community even more. The Chicago Makers Holiday Pop Up Shop is only open until December 31! Stop in Monday-Saturday 10-8 and Sundays 11-7.


Revolution Craft Show Chicago Pop-Up 

Nov. 14 – Nov. 15, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., Pilsen

Revolution Craft Show Chicago Pop Up is part craft show, part gift shop. At their new location in Pilsen, you will find the same great handmade items from local Chicago artists, but in a unique semi-private shopping experience. Reservations are $5 each to help cover the cost of PPE for staff.
