Meanwhile, Mom will take center stage on Saturday, May 9, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. during Stuyvesant Plaza’s annual Mother’s Day Social. Guests start off at Circles where they can enjoy sips and bites throughout the event, alongside a welcome gift courtesy of Stuyvesant Plaza; gift with purchase from Circles; a luxury forever bracelet pop-up within Lola Saratoga; and a curl and make-up bar courtesy of Jean Paul Spa & Salons. The stroll then heads to Athleta where BARE Blends and Rad Soap Co. will set up pop-up shops for browsing, and where guests will enjoy a complimentary gift card by Athleta. The event concludes at Anthropologie between 12 and 1 p.m. with live music by DJ Ayo, sips and bites courtesy of Jacob & Anthony’s Italian, a pop-up experience by Kendra Scott, and much more!
All proceeds from the Mother’s Day Social will benefit Girls on the Run of the Capital Region, a non-profit organization that provides fun, evidence-based programs that inspire participants to recognize their inner strength, increase their level of physical activity, imagine their possibilities and confidently stand up for themselves and others. Tickets are $15, while supplies last, and can be reserved at this link. This event is for those 21 years of age and older.
“Stuyvesant Plaza is thrilled to be welcoming the season with experiences that truly bring our community together,” said Stuyvesant Plaza General Manager Rachel Ferluge. “Moms do so much, so we wanted to create a day where all she has to do is show up and enjoy a perfectly planned experience with the people she loves – curated shopping, beauty treatments, amazing pop-ups, and delicious bites, all in one place. We’re equally thrilled to celebrate AAPI Heritage Month with culinary pop-ups that reflect the vibrant diversity of the Capital Region.”
