Meet the Makers: Pop-Ups at the Visitor Center

Shop local. Discover handmade. Celebrate McHenry County's creative spirit.

Join us this summer and fall at the Naturally McHenry County Visitor Center, where local artisans, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations are popping up to share their handcrafted goods, unique experiences, and community-driven missions.

Located inside the beautifully restored Historic Old Courthouse Center on the Woodstock Square, these pop-ups offer a one-of-a-kind opportunity to explore the best of what’s made, grown, and dreamed up right here in McHenry County.

What to Expect

Handcrafted goods & gifts
Locally sourced products
Art, jewelry, candles, skincare, and more
Interactive experiences & pop-up events
Nonprofits sharing how to get involved

You never know who you’ll meet — or what treasures you’ll discover!
