On April 1st, the Dunnville Chamber of Commerce proudly welcomed one of our newest members and businesses to town—Dunnville Craft Emporium—with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Chamber President Rebecca Booth and Community Outreach Director Deb Rollo.
Located in the heart of Dunnville, Dunnville Craft Emporium is a vibrant new hub for creativity and community. Owned by Sheri Croxon, the emporium officially opened its doors with a warm and well-attended launch, marking an exciting new chapter for the local artisan scene.
From Passion to Purpose: How Dunnville Craft Emporium Was Born
Sheri, who has been in the crafting business for several years, shared her inspiration behind the shop. After connecting with many talented makers in the community, she always dreamed of opening a space where their work could shine. That dream became a reality just five months ago when her husband Gary encouraged her to take the leap—and what a leap it’s been!
More Than a Store—It’s a Community Experience
As of opening day, the Dunnville Craft Emporium features 29 local artisans—with a growing waitlist of creators eager to join. From handcrafted goods to unique décor and artisan gifts, the emporium is quickly becoming a must-visit destination for locals and visitors alike.
The creativity doesn’t stop at the shelves. The first workshop is scheduled for April 7th, with more exciting hands-on events planned in the coming months, offering the community opportunities to learn new skills and support local talent.
We’re thrilled to have Dunnville Craft Emporium as part of our growing business community. For updates, event announcements, and a peek at what’s in store, be sure to follow them on Facebook or Instagram at @DunnvilleCraftEmporium—or better yet, pop in and see the magic for yourself!
Welcome, Sheri and team—we’re so glad you’re here!
