Shop small and support your local CWE businesses on Small Business Saturday!

The Central West End is home to dozens of locally owned restaurants and retailers, and on November 26, businesses throughout the neighborhood will host special Small Business Saturday promotions that you won’t want to miss!

This year, we are kicking off the festivities at 10 a.m. with complimentary donuts and hot cocoa:

• The first 150 people to Pharaohs will receive a free glazed donut.
• The first 150 people to stop by the table outside Pi Pizzeria at McPherson will receive a free hot cocoa and donut.

Plus, the first 150 shoppers to the Central West End will receive a one-of-a-kind CWE holiday tote bag, designed by the CWE’s very own Charlie Houska. (15 lucky shoppers will also find some special gift cards tucked away inside their bag)! Up to $3,000 in cards will be awarded.

As you shop and stroll throughout the neighborhood, you can also enjoy festive street performers, carolers, and live music to help you get in the holiday spirit.

Shopping in the Central West End provides jobs for local people and when you spend money at local businesses, you’re helping to boost the community by stimulating the local economy. Support your city and help the CWE thrive, while also finding great gifts for your friends and family.
