PopShop + vitaminwater Uncapped!

Exciting news! For September, PopShop is taking it to the streets (okay, technically it's a venue ON Main Street) where we'll be a part of the huge, 7-day vitaminwater Uncapped Live event in Cincinnati!

On Tuesday September 20th from 6-10pm, we'll be taking over part of the Hanke Building (1128 Main Street) with a fantastic selection of stylish, crafty wares for Show Us Your Glow! In the former club space currently being painted by Higher Level Art, fierce models will stomp down the runway in a fashion show featuring local designers and styles inspired by vitaminwater zero. You can also expect plenty of great music, games, a beer bar, and plenty of free vitaminwater--all leading up to the madness of MidPoint Music Festival.

Mark your calendar for September 20th, and we'll see you there!

August PopShop Pictures!

We're never exactly sure what to expect when we set up in a new space for Final Friday PopShop, and August's event was no exception. After some cleaning and decorating, we got our vendors set up, turned up the music, and went for it!


 


 There were a lot of yummy goodies in addition to the crafty goods this time around--homemade salted caramels, birthday cake fudge, and fried candy bars for those with a serious sweet tooth (me!); and delicious hot metts and stuffed burgers from Stuffed on Vine for everyone who was really hungry (um...also me).



We had plenty of foot traffic from the (conveniently located) Woodward parking lot, and spread our posters and pink balloons up and down Main & Woodward to attract guests. It took a while to figure out how to turn on the building's outside lights once it got dark (something about a switch box in the courtyard?), but overall it was a success!

Were you able to make it? What did you think?

Address Found: 207 Woodward Street

Yes, we finally found a spot! The August 26th Final Friday PopShop will be held at 207 Woodward Street, just a few steps from the intersection of Woodward and Main.

 
The building itself has pink doors and pastel fish and birds painted on the front (talk about putting a bird on it!), and the indoor space is simple and clean, with hardwood floors and white walls.


Wait 'til you see how we hook it up!

IMPORTANT: June's PopShop will be at 1317 Main Street

Okay folks, we're moving! Instead of setting up at 1200 Main Street this month, we've had to move the June Final Friday PopShop further north to 1317 Main Street, at the old OTR Foundation headquarters.



While 1200 Main Street is at a great corner location, the space currently does not have permanent lighting fixtures and would require more time and attention than we have at this point. Thankfully, Alaina from Urban Sites came to our rescue and was able to help us secure the space at 1317 Main Street! It's a great spot with hardwood floors, artfully painted walls & ceilings, and it's in a prime location between Couture Couture and You Do Yoga.

We're so excited to be in this space! Hope to see you there Friday, June 24th from 6-10!
