"This expanded layout will allow for more distance between vendors and more room to spread out," Trina Vetter, special events coordinator for the City of Edwardsville, said. "This, along with other COVID-19 safety measures, will give the community a safer place to do some holiday shopping."

Vetter said the 2020 Winter Market will have 44 vendors featuring artisans, baked goods, crafters, locally grown items, and unique, boutique gifts and products from the neighborhood and the surrounding communities.

"After the market is over at noon, take a stroll down Main Street and visit other shops that are open that afternoon," Vetter said. "Grab some lunch at one of the many restaurants to take home and enjoy. We encourage people to buy local for the holidays!
