Black Friday, held the day after Thanksgiving, doesn’t mean the holiday shopping is over! It's really just getting started. Here in Augusta, shoppers are invited to the 3rd Annual Downtown Augusta Small Business Crawl.
This is a chance for holiday shoppers, like yourself, to explore local shops here in Downtown Augusta. Shoppers will also have the opportunity to participate in giveaways and raffle drawings.
Not only is this your opportunity to explore, but also a chance for the small businesses in Downtown Augusta to be highlighted.
The annual downtown crawl will kick off at 10 am, with the first stop being Augusta and Co. located on 1010 Broad Street. The first 200 shoppers that arrive at Augusta and Co. will receive a complimentary locally designed canvas tote and crawl maps.
Augusta and Co is the Augusta Experience Center also known as the visitor center. It’s a center for both locals and visitors to experience authentic pieces of Augusta, from art, to treats, and local merchandise, as well as information on regional attractions.
Crawl participants can also receive a custom button with a purchase at each sponsoring merchant. Each of the sponsoring merchants is also donating a gift basket – a total of 14 gift baskets in all. Participants can enter to win with each purchase at a store on the crawl.
