- Jackie Loreta-Rinearson

The Sip n Shop on Main Street Committee was very busy this last month. The artisans spots are about half full, so get your application in soon. This year’s Sip n Shop will be held from 2 to 7 p.m. Saturday, July 25. Artisans/crafters are encouraged to register with Jackie Rinearson at rinearson05@frontier.com and wineries are to contact Sherri Collins at sherricollins57@gmail.com.

Speaking of wineries, they have four confirmed so far.

Again, there will be music and great food. Crafters and artisans will speckle the sidewalks, with wineries lining the center of Main Street. This year, there will be dog training, book signings, soaps, watercolor, more honey, bird houses, stained glass, multiple jewelry types, house décor, candles, wood creations, greeting cards and much, much more. Back by popular demand will be the demos on the hour, featuring five of our local artisans/crafters.


Garage sale weekend is scheduled for May 15 through 17. Registration is open now with a fee of $20. Maps are provided to the guests pointing out the locations to the many garage sales. Contact Michelle at The Villager to register. Call 330-527-2411.
