Jump start the festive season with great deals on small business shopping. The Holiday Haul Crawl, produced in collaboration of many businesses in Tacoma’s Museum District, is your opportunity to check a few gifts off your list and make merry December 3rd, 10am – 10pm.
The idea for the Holiday Haul Crawl originated as Susan Massey from TAM‘s museum store and Liz Van Dyke, owner of Stocklist, were talking about how their stores could best support each other and the rest of the retail, restaurant and museums along their stretch of Pac Ave.
After meeting at Stocklist, they decided to see what their neighbors thought about the idea of hosting a holiday event. The feedback was resoundingly positive and the event snowballed to showcase the myriad of fantastic small businesses along Pac Ave, inviting visitors to the area to tackle a great deal of their holiday shopping in one joyous place!
Ben Mauk, Real Estate Manager for the University of Washington Tacoma, was excited about the idea and enlisted the design skills of new tenant, Rotator Creative, to design beautiful, promotional postcard. Tinkertopia owners too were delighted to join the fun, offering the shoppers a free, DIY gift tag and greeting card station to deck out new purchases.
Save This Deal Guide to your phone so you can find great gifts and food specials throughout the day on December 3rd.
The festivities will go all day and will wrap up with the annual Beautiful Angle Holiday Party. Join event on Facebook.
