Washington Crossing, PA –Area residents looking for one-of-a-kind artisan gifts for themselves or others can check out McConkey’s Market on Saturday, June 15 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Washington Crossing Historic Park (PA).
Created 10 years ago this year, McConkey’s Market attracts thousands of shoppers to its eclectic mix of nearly 100 vendors who sell artisan crafts, up-cycled items, handmade jewelry, original art and photography, pottery, vintage clothing, reclaimed furniture, and collectibles. The market also features live music and several food vendors.
McConkey’s Market takes its name from the park’s McConkey Ferry Inn, parts of which date back to 1750. The building represents a typical country inn or tavern of the Revolutionary era. Tradition has it that George Washington ate at the inn prior to his crossing of the Delaware River.
