Olathe on Wednesday debuted a new spring and summertime downtown event it’s calling “Sip & Shop.”

The event — which Olathe is describing as “a family-friendly pop-up market” — will take place every second Wednesday between now and October. Patrons can expect local vendors selling clothing, beverages, snacks and other goodies.

Plus, there’s live music and other free entertainment.
