A special day of shopping, art and entertainment downtown! Enjoy a full day and evening of culture and activity. Visit a variety of retailers, artist venues and fabulous restaurants, plus music and drinks at all your favorite hot spots!

In February we invite you to "tour downtown with chocolate". Businesses will be offering special sample tastings and sales on all sorts of chocolate items -- the more places you visit, the more delightful treats you'll find!

We're also teaming up with the American Heart Association's "Go Red" campaign for heart health. You'll find information on maintaining a healthy heart at various stores, and are invited to wear red to help raise awareness.

See you downtown!!
