Craft & Mercantile Returning To Exton's Weatherstone Town Center

EXTON, PA — Music, food, crafts, and a new pizza pub drew more than 850 people out in Exton on June 18, and the next Craft & Merchantile summer event is coming to Weatherstone Town Center on July 16.

On the heels of the success of the first market of the season, Hankin Group and Growing Roots Partners are coming together to host three more events to close out the summer season in Weatherstone Town Center.

The second installment of Craft & Mercantile will be held July 16 from 5-8 p.m.

Last month's event attracted over 850 people from the surrounding community for an evening of shopping, food and drink, and live entertainment.

Weatherstone's anchor tenant and the Hankin Group’s newest restaurant, Revival Pizza Pub, held their grand opening in conjunction with the market on June 18.

"We couldn’t have asked for a better kickoff event in Weatherstone," said Brooke Rightnour, Marketing and Public Relations Manager for the Hankin Group. "The entire community came together and just seemed to really enjoy each other’s company and the market offerings. There was a little bit of something for everyone with over 25 craft vendors, four food trucks, and a dynamic, talented musician to top it all off."

The free event will return monthly from July through September with some new and returning vendors along with local food trucks and rotating musicians.

Magic Memories, a daycare in Weatherstone, will be hosting a kid's activity in the town square to round out the three-hour event. "Craft & Mercantile is a fun, family-friendly event," said event organizer, Christy Campli, owner of Growing Roots Partners. "We really take into consideration the demographic and feedback from the community to curate the markets. It’s amazing to be able to provide a stage for these local artisans to share their work with others."

Organizers said more information will be released on the Weatherstone Town Center and Craft & Mercantile social media pages and its website, here.

Later this summer, Weatherstone Town Center will also host a music performance in coordination with Point Entertainment and a movie night in September. Their full event line-up can be found here.
