Schedule of Events
Funtastic Fridays are back at The Village Chocolate Shoppe at 471 Main Street, Bennington VT!
Looking for something fun to do on a Friday night? We have just the thing. Join us at The Village Chocolate Shoppe in Bennington Friday nights in July and August. NEW TIME: 5-7pm.
Here is a sneak peak at our events. They will look a bit different this year as we will not be holding them in the kitchen, but don't worry, it will still be lots of fun. Watch for details on Facebook and on our website.
