Phase Three Brewing, in collaboration with the Streetz Artz Alliance, will host the return of the Be Mine Bazaar on Sunday, February 1, at its Lake Zurich brewery, located at 932 Donata Court. This free, family-friendly sip-and-shop event runs from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. and features a thoughtfully curated mix of handmade goods, specialty foods, art, and one-of-a-kind finds from local artists and makers—many with a Valentine’s-inspired twist.

Guests can browse the indoor market while enjoying Phase Three Brewing’s seasonal winter kitchen menu and a wide selection of craft beverages. Current cold-weather offerings include giant pretzels, crispy wings, paninis, Cubano sandwiches, maple butternut squash apple salad, bread pudding, and more. Menu items may vary slightly based on weather conditions. While burgers are off the menu for winter, they are expected to return in the spring.

Phase Three Brewing will also debut new beer releases during the event, including Mystic Infinity, a Black IPA, and a new P3 Oat Lager. Non-alcoholic options will be available as well, including Untitled Art N/A beers, sodas, juice boxes, and more. Guests can also enjoy seltzer cocktails, including a raspberry Lush seltzer crafted specifically for the market.

For many participating vendors, Be Mine Bazaar marks their first market of 2026, with artists debuting brand-new work that ranges from playful and cheeky to refined and classic. New artists making their Phase Three Lake Zurich debut include Angelic Celestial Whispers, Atlas Art Designs, Cin’s Crafty Creations, Critter Conscious, Gunderstorm Art, HardbackYoYo, Jetibles, Luna’s Loops, Mad Apple Creative, Mama Mick Crafts, LLC, Mamo and Jo, Mixtape Your Life, Orchid & Bone, Pigeon Brain Studios LLC, Small Acts of Tomo, Snackified LLC, Spotted Elephant Ink, Sweet U Candles, That Girl at the Market, Twilight & Sage Co., and Xena Lopez Art.

Fan-favorite D’Mood Kreationz returns with all-new jewelry and apparel, including natural turquoise and electroplated gray AB finished bead bracelets, a Valentine’s statement piece titled NOIR featuring Tibetan Agate and Coral Fossil, and a striking two-piece set crafted from genuine Dream Amethyst. The artist spent the winter months creating new designs specifically for this season.

Mamo and Jo brings a passion for leather craftsmanship, offering 100% handmade and hand-stitched bags created from premium leather. Their collection includes totes, handbags, shoulder bags, bag flair, keychains, and cowhides available upon request—each piece entirely one of a kind.

Food lovers can awaken their senses with Gigawatt Coffee Roasters’ air-roasted coffee, while FeFe’s Pickles and Peppers offers homemade pickles, peppers, and onions packed with bold flavor. KP’s Candy Factory will feature an extensive lineup of handcrafted treats, including peanut clusters, buttery toffee, chocolate caramels, candy kabobs, peanut butter balls, s’mores, brownie bites, dark-chocolate-covered dried fruits, trail mix, and caramelized puffed corn.

New-to-this-venue artist Xena Lopez Art creates work using pen, colored pencil, acrylic, and watercolor, blending humor with vulnerability to capture relatable scenes on paper. Products include self-published comics and zines, prints, vinyl stickers, apparel, and small accessories.

Spotted Elephant Ink will offer 100% organic, natural, handmade henna tattoos alongside intentional artwork and hand-drawn creations. With more than 20 years of fine art experience, the artist brings a thoughtful and expressive presence to the market.

Orchid & Bone will make its Phase Three Brewing Lake Zurich debut, showcasing handcrafted bone jewelry and art made from ethically foraged materials. An ecologist by trade, the artist applies their expertise to ensure sustainability and respect for nature. Valentine’s offerings will include The Lovers tarot card prints, rose quartz jewelry, sun catchers, and a selection of witchy and nature-inspired prints, ceramics, and crochet items.

Mixtape Your Life will feature its popular Stranger Things “Butt Stuff” parody necklace—which glows under black light—along with matching earrings. This design will be discontinued once current inventory sells out, making the market a last-chance opportunity for fans.

Beyond shopping, many participating vendors give back to the community. Grandma Dan’s Bakery supports local food banks, Bosco’s All Natural Dog and Cat Treats donates to CFVC for Veterans, Wanna Pickle Gourmet Foods supports Wanna Help Charities, and DK Custom Woodwork contributes to multiple charitable causes. Several artists also donate to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The Streetz Artz Alliance is a curated collective of local artists, handmakers, and small businesses that produces sip-and-shop markets primarily hosted at breweries throughout the Chicago suburbs. Led by John Streetz, the alliance focuses on community building by creating accessible, thoughtfully curated opportunities for small businesses and makers.

“Over the past few months, it’s become clear how much breweries value the work we do to promote both their spaces and the artists we partner with,” Streetz said. “I put a great deal of personal time and care into every event with the goal of creating meaningful opportunities for small businesses and memorable experiences for patrons. I’m proud of the Streetz Artz Alliance and grateful for every brewery that gives us the chance to do what we love.”
