Small Business Saturday
Shop Local! Shop Downtown Annapolis
The Saturday after Thanksgiving
Small Business Saturday has become an annual event for our downtown Annapolis business districts. It has been over 12 years since we started celebrating our small local businesses on this day. These are the businesses that make your community unique and special. Every day, we all vote with our dollars on which companies we want to see continue to be in our communities. Shopping at your favorite Small Business on this day brings the community together to reinforce to our local business owners that you appreciate them, as they appreciate you.
The day is devoted to supporting your local independent retailers and restaurants.
Have fun and shop in Downtown Annapolis at your favorite small business. Enjoy the special hometown service and the unique selection you find from your locally owned retailers. If you are unable to visit Annapolis, you can shop our 90 stores online by clicking here. You can order restaurant gift cards by clicking here.
