Discover festive Downtown Burlington for all your local shopping

First Published:

Our new adventure reporter Emily Vukovic kicked off her week with a tour of downtown Burlington.

She started on the rooftop of the Joseph Brant Museum for some popcorn and hot chocolate with Brian Dean of the Burlington BIA, and learned about what’s happening in Burlington this season.

Emily then checked out some beautiful handcrafted ornaments and goodies as well as the artwork of some local featured artists at the Art Gallery of Burlington, then headed to Agora Marketplace for some jewelry and unique gifts, before finally finishing off her morning at A Different Drummer Books to find some engaging books for the bookworms of all ages in your life.
