Delhi Area Events & Shopping Specials on Saturday, November 26th.

Small Business Saturday is a movement encouraging people to shop at small local businesses on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. An alternative option to big-box chains and online retail giants, the powerful message of the holiday is to support local entrepreneurs and keep their brick and mortar businesses alive. By doing so, we help energize local economy, keeping it viable and beneficial to all. 

We're so proud of all the unique small businesses here in the Greater Delhi Area. We benefit so much as a community from the creators, the makers, the crafters, the farmers and the artists who shape and contribute so much to the economy and the vibrancy of this region. Through their work and efforts, we form our identity and pride. 

While we strongly suggest that you shop small the entire year, we are putting our best foot forward with on Saturday, November 26th. We welcome you to come to the Greater Delhi Area to shop all day and then we suggest you stay late to enjoy some of the events that the businesses are organizing.
