How to Support Small Businesses: WintrMarkt STL

Want to avoid the hassle of Black Friday shopping while supporting small businesses here in St. Louis? We have the perfect solution!

The Women’s Creative and Joya announced the return of WintrMarkt to City Foundry STL (3730 Forest Park Ave) to be held indoors every Saturday and Sunday from 12-4pm launching November 27th through December 19th. The event is a highly curated boutique market featuring 50 different vendors each weekend (200 total) as well as a special pop-up Schlafly bar and STLMade charity gift wrap station along with other fun festivities.

The free-to-attend, community event will take place indoors within and around the newly opened Food Hall at City Foundry STL. Parking is free in the City Foundry parking garage. Walk-ins are welcome but anyone who RSVP’s online will receive an emailed swag bag of discount offers from the vendors to be used at the event.

“WintrMarkt is the most fun and convenient way to support local this season while also knocking out your weekend holiday shopping. It’s also a lot more reliable than anxiously checking the shipping notifications for online orders! We’re proud to be#STLMade and grateful to our sponsors Schlafly and Saint Louis Bank for helping us provide this opportunity to local businesses during their most important selling season of the year” says Jessica Conick with The Women’s Creative.

Guests can expect an afternoon of great shopping, holiday décor and festivities. Each weekend the event will host a variety of entertainment experiences. Wintrmarkt will welcome musical performances from local high schools, carolers, features from a variety of local charities and more. Shopping will include something for everyone with a variety of gift items for everyone on your gift list!
