Kalona Holiday Pop-up

Posted

Kalona is home to a new holiday pop-up shop on 5th Street, next to Everence Financial Services. The new shop is open Fridays and Saturdays in November and December to provide more Christmas shopping opportunities for local shoppers.

Lori Witthoft, owner of Best of Iowa, and Kay Boyer, co-owner of The Shop, are the duo behind the new pop-up shop.

"Kay and I have a long history together,” Witthoft said. “We have been to a lot of shows together. We just thought it would be really fun to create more Christmas shopping opportunities in Kalona. The pop-up shop is really oriented toward holiday and gift shopping, so there are a lot of great gifts for men and women and children — the whole family.”

Witthoft said she and Boyer hope to open the shop a few extra days closer to Christmas, as well.
