They’re temporary and they seem to appear out of nowhere: Christmas pop-up shops are an iconic fixture of the holiday season. These shops that appear in empty storefronts are part of the national culture, with handcrafted items, gifts and decorations to make your house look like Christmas. One such store has popped up on Main Street in Front Royal, and is open everyday until Christmas.
The pop-up store is a collaboration of Strokes of Creativity Art Boutique & Studio and Main Street Travel. This 2-month Holiday Market Pop-Up offers small business and artisans a brick and mortar to sell their items. The Holiday Market is in the Kibler Building at 206 E. Main Street, Front Royal, VA.
