The Winter City Market will return once a month from November through March 2019 at the Westfield Lions Club, 120 Jersey St.

Market times are 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 10, Dec. 8, Jan. 12, Feb. 9 and March 9. Last year was the first year the Downtown Westfield Association utilized the Lions clubhouse for its market. Formerly, the market was conducted at the Grand Parks Events Center.

At the clubhouse, the market can offer ready-made food options, DWA Executive Director Teresa Skelton said. Moving the market to downtown Westfield also helps create a presence where the market plans to relocate when the Grand Junction Park and Plaza is complete.

“The vendors did very well at Grand Park, but I think this is a more intimate setting, and from an organization standpoint, I like the fact (the clubhouse) is in our downtown,” Skelton said.

Ready-made food vendors will include the Rail Epicurean Market for the November market; Delish by Design for the December, January and February markets; and the Westfield Washington Historical Society for the March market.

“In my opinion, every city and town should have a market to provide local folks with local growers, primarily, and local artisans,” Skelton said. “It connects the community in a good way, in a very organic way.”
