1st Pop-Up In The Park Comes To Solon In August

SOLON, OH -- The city's first pop-up shop and farmers market will arrive in Solon on August 18. The much-anticipated Solon Pop-Up in the Park will feature more than 60 vendors, local artisans, farmers and food trucks, the city said. The event is free and open to the community.

"The City of Solon has wanted to bring this pop-up to life for a while now and we felt this summer was a great time to introduce this market to our community. We are very excited to see the show take form and give Solon residents (and surrounding cities) just one more reason to love the community they live in!" said Maria Farley, assistant to Solon Mayor Edward Kraus.

The city is hoping the Solon Pop-Up in the Park event will become an annual celebration for residents. During the event, the city is also hosting local health and fitness classes.
