Even though Small Business Saturday was observed Nov. 30, it doesn't mean you still can't shop local this holiday season. Small businesses are the backbone of Morgantown, and a variety of local shops are still offering specials right up until Christmas.
You're sure to find the perfect gifts for everyone on your list—no need to make the trek to a big box retailer or pay for online shipping charges. Our real estate agents recommend the following great places to shop in downtown Morgantown on Small Business Saturday:
- Hoot & Howl - 245 Walnut St., Morgantown
Hoot & Howl is one of Morgantown's most unique shops, offering high-quality, eclectic items from over 80 local artisans.
