Shop Small Modesto
By Chris Murphy
ModestoView readers know that we are all about local. We are supported by our local businesses and organizations and when it comes time for holiday shopping, we need to keep our dollars here at home.
First, get your plans ready as most local retailers are also offering “black Friday” deals and spend your money where it stays here. McHenry Village has everything you need for holiday shopping and this year in downtown, you can enjoy Pink Friday, November 29 with deals all around downtown and then there is DoMo Shop on Saturday November 30.
Take it from the ViewCrew, plant yourself in downtown and do a pub crawl on Friday and do some shopping in between. Park once, or Uber down and make a circuit. You will have a great time and do good for our community. Don’t forget to get gift cards to local restaurants this year and that really helps is all out.
DoMo Shop
Shop small in Downtown Modesto with local crafter all over downtown, from 10th Street Plaza to 16th Street.
There are so many handmade crafters that will be on display in places you love like Chinn’s, Lofi, Greens, Century, Penny University and more. You can get a DoMoShop Passport and win prized for visiting the vendors and businesses. There will be more than 60 crafters in various locations and if you plan it right, you can finish your holiday gifting that night. Cruise downtown, check out the murals, enjoy dinner and drinks and get a photo with Santa. Sounds like a perfect day,
