The Great Indoors Market launching at Bower Place

Oct 26, 2018 | 10:40 AM

Bower Place is trying something new to fill some of the space formerly occupied by Sears.

The Great Indoors Market at Bower (TGIM) opened Thursday with 100% of merchants set to be up and running by November 5, officials say.

With 12,000 square feet of area for between 12 to 15 retailers, The Great Indoors Market will house specialty leases, temporary seasonal vendors, pop-up shops and a community-connecting event space, complete with a rentable stage, selfie wall, and sitting areas.

Seasonal kiosk merchants such as Hickory Farms, Happy Hippo, alongside merchants like Calyx Floral Design, Kaylee Baylees and True Bliss Cheesecake will be among those set up in the new area.

An official public launch is slated for November 10.

“This has been an exciting change with a decidedly innovative approach,” says Sonya Hunt, General Manager of Bower Place. “This market has the potential to incubate more boutique-like entrepreneurs and produce sustainable longevity in our retail landscape.

“The Great Indoors Market fosters community and a positive retail experience unavailable to you while you pay for online shipping and wait weeks for parcels at home. This is a strategic attempt at rising the tide of several local merchants and eager experience-based shoppers at once to create a win-win for everyone,” she adds.

The Great Indoors Market will be open in advance of Santa’s Arrival and Red and White Night.
