Main Street Vineland announces plans for Crafts and Antiques Show On The Ave

VINELAND - With a large market existing for good quality crafts and antiques, Main Street Vineland is enthusiastic about debuting a new downtown event, Crafts and Antiques Show on The Ave, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 6, rain or shine, on the 600 block of Landis Avenue.

Main Street Vineland is working with a firm that has a large database of crafters and antique dealers. This will be a juried show with Main Street Vineland taking part in the participant selection process.

Landis Avenue merchants are also invited to participate in the event by holding sidewalk sales.

“These shows attract a good number of vendors and interested parties who come to look for fine crafts and antiques,” said Russell Swanson, executive director, Main Street Vineland. “We believe that this is something that will become another strong part of our calendar of events.”

Robert Scarpa, associate director, Main Street Vineland, sees this event as a “win” for all concerned, “Not only will the vendors get additional exposure, but the public will have another chance to pick up some fine items, but, with the street remaining open to traffic, it will be good for our downtown merchants and restaurants along our new walking trails,” Scarpa said. “With enough demand for vendor spots, we could expand this into the 700 block, making it even bigger and better.”
