Sip and Shop

Sip, shop, and socialize after hours in Historic Valley Junction this fall. Join us for the first of three Thursdays in 2025 as participating shops stay open late with special sips, in-store events, and unique shopping surprises. Each boutique brings its own twist – think trunk shows, charity spotlights, limited-time sales, and pop-ups, making every evening a new experience. Explore the district and uncover fresh finds at your favorite local shops. Check each participating business for store-specific happenings, featured charities, and exclusive offers. Gather your friends, try something new, and make it an evening (or three!) in Valley Junction.
