Phase Three Brewing - Lake Zurich

Summer is officially in full swing, and we're kicking it off the right way. Join us Saturday, June 27th from 12 to 5pm for the very first Midsummer Artisan Market at Phase Three Brewing in Lake Zurich!
This is a sip-and-shop experience done right. We're talking original artwork, handmade jewelry, one-of-a-kind apparel, self care finds, tarot readings, human-grade treats, and so much more from a curated lineup of talented local artists and makers. Over 30 artists are planned for this event.
Whether you're hunting for the perfect gift, shopping for yourself (no judgment, highly encouraged), or just looking for a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon, you're going to find something you love.
Phase Three's kitchen will be serving up their rotating menu, the beer is cold, and the vibe is relaxed. The market is both indoor and outdoor, free to attend, family friendly, and parking is easy and free in the area.
A quick note: we moved what was originally planned as a Spring Market into the summer, and honestly it feels right at home. We may also be adding some artists outside, so the footprint could grow. Either way, it's going to be a great afternoon.
Come out, explore, sip something delicious, and support the makers. We'll see you June 27th at Phase Three Brewing, 932 Donata Ct., Lake Zurich, IL.
