Chocolate Walk returns to Marion

MARION — Shoppers are invited to return to Uptown Marion for an evening of chocolate treat samples, entertainment and prizes.

The Chocolate Walk & Shop in Uptown Marion will be open from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, Oct. 6.

Entertainment includes acoustic artist Matt Gogel on the Uptown Artway stage, and pianist Elisabeth Kissling inside Philip’s Diamond Shop.

“This is the perfect event to shop and dine in Uptown and see the new streetscape lit up at night,” said Brooke Prouty, Uptown Marion Main Street director.

Shoppers also can enter for a chance to win a $100 gift certificate to participating businesses, by presenting a receipt at the welcome booth in the North Plaza. For a complete list of more than 30 businesses participating in the Chocolate Walk, go to facebook.com/MarionIAChamber.
