MARLBOROUGH – Christmas came early in Marlborough.
The community gathered at the downtown pop-up shops on July 22 for the Marlborough Economic Development Corporation’s (MEDC) Christmas in July.
The event featured face painting, live music, a farmers market, shopping and photos with Santa. Local musician Adam Gojanovich performed while Patrick St. Pierre provided the face painting.
The event was also a way to celebrate the Downtown Pop-Up project in downtown Marlborough. The city had been awarded a grant by the Regional Economic Development Organization through the efforts of the MEDC on behalf of the city and the 495/MetroWest Partnership.
The shops have been open every weekend since May. During Christmas in July, the pop-up businesses included Luna Pines, Magic and Color Co., Vibes Candles and Maks by Design.
The event was made possible and free for visitors and participants thanks to MEDC’s partnerships with 495/MetroWest Partnership and the Mass. Cultural Council.
