Join us for Makers at the Museum every month through November

Admission and parking are free

Sickness, affecting people and pets alike, forced four vendors to drop out. Another followed suit because of a child care issue. Our food vendor, with its open-air trailer, couldn’t participate in the face of wintry weather.

Still, 16 hardy artisans helped kick off the 2025 season of our makers market, Makers at the Museum, on Feb. 16. Our store and the Hershey History Center museum were open, too.

The market, which debuted last summer, takes place one Sunday per month through November, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission and parking are free.

The history center is at 40 Northeast Drive, Hershey, across from Starbucks and the Tanger outlets and just down the road from Troegs Independent Brewing.

Our store is at the rear of the history center property in a white building known as the Milk House.
