About the event
Mark your calendar for Sip & Shop at the Marketplace, a media and influencer night preview at CLT Black Owned’s Annual Holiday Market. This annual event turns a local space into a one-weekend-only store with more than 45 Black-owned brands inside!
The annual event brings in hundreds of shoppers, tens of thousands of dollars and so much holiday joy!
This private preview allows influencers, members of the press and invited guests to shop the store’s merchandise and sip on holiday-themed cocktails – and mocktails – ahead of the holiday rush.
Before doors open to the public, influencers like you will get first access to check out the store. Expect jewelry, fashion, art, skincare, candles, home décor, specialty gifts and more.
