Easton, Pa., October 25, 2023 – Belleville Market, a recently launched multi-merchant shopping experience in downtown Easton, PA that replaced the Easton Antique Emporium earlier this year, has announced its line-up of in-store Events and Activities for the 2023 Holiday Season.
Located at 20 S 3rd St in Easton, PA, Belleville Market is inspired by the Belleville neighborhood of Paris, France and modeled after an outdoor European street market. Inside Belleville Market you’ll find a juried collection of over 70 makers, curators and collectors, all of whom are locally-owned and creative-based small businesses.

Founded by Warren and Derrick Clark, co-founders of Domaci, a home furnishings retailer based in the Lehigh Valley. The pair took over ownership of the Easton Antique Emporium in May and completed its transition to the new Belleville Market in early July. “With any of our retail projects, we’ve always set out to create stores that are more than just a place to shop, but also an experience where friends and neighbors could gather. With Belleville, we think we’ve finally accomplished this vision.” Says co-founder Derrick Clark.
“We’ve always had a special place in our hearts for Christmas, and we’re very excited to be able to tap into the City of Easton’s vibrant entrepreneurial spirit this holiday season. With nearly 70 different merchants to choose from, you’re sure to find something for nearly everyone on your Christmas list here at Belleville Market,” says co-founder, Warren Clark. “And even if you want to come in and just browse, we’re aiming to create a special experience that harkens back to the retail stores of yesteryear with especially festive decor. Strolling through the market will truly be like walking in a Winter Wonderland.”
To further simplify the holiday shopping experience, Belleville Market recently launched its Concierge Gift Curation Service. Customers are invited to complete a virtual “gift survey”. Once received, a personal shopper will curate the perfect gift basket based on the information provided. “We’re always looking for ways to engage with the local shopper and encourage them to shop small.” Says Warren Clark. “Our Concierge service provides a simple way for customers to quickly get their holiday shopping completed, while still supporting many small businesses all at once.”
Alongside a unique shopping experience, Belleville Market offers opportunities for non-permanent merchant pop-ups, and a space to host workshops and small-scale private events. Those interested can inquire on the store’s website.
