MAKE[R], an artisan boutique, has recently expanded with its second location at Halcyon, showcasing a diverse array of handmade products from over 24 local artisans. Complementing its offerings, MAKE[R] also hosts hands-on, maker-led classes and workshops year-round.
Kristen Cardinal, the owner and founder, strategically chose Halcyon for its vibrant energy and sense of community, stemming from her involvement in Halcyon’s spring and holiday artists markets over the years. As a mother of four, Kristen appreciates Halcyon’s family-friendly atmosphere, seamlessly integrating her professional and personal life. The allure of enjoying a drink and leisurely stroll further enhances the welcoming ambiance for both Kristen and her customers, aligning her business expansion with her values and lifestyle.
