The Promontory - 5311 S Lake Park Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60615

Point Person - Lee Andel Dewey

If you are a person that is shopping for the holiday season, I encourage you to join us in Hyde Park to shop for local, handmade gifts! Treat yourself, as well, at the restaurant downstairs for brunch, or if you're anything like me, by adding to your personal art collection, upstairs!

Official event description is as follows:

Join us in the Promontory's beautiful second-floor indoor music venue for a gathering of the neighborhood's best artisans. Meet dozens of amazing vendors at our indoor crafts and food market while listening to DJ Sean Alvarez spinning jazzy, soulful soundtracks to your shopping.

Admission is free, the bar is open, and brunch is being served downstairs, so make a day of it!
