According to Lindsey Solomon, Haywood County Arts Council Executive Director, “We are thrilled to partner with the HCC Small Business Center for a special Small Business Saturday artist pop-up in our gallery. Though some people don’t immediately think of artists as small business owners, they absolutely are. Supporting small, local businesses boosts our local economy and supporting artists specifically in their small businesses helps us live into our mission as the Haywood County Arts Council.”
HCC’s Small Business Center is a neighborhood champion for Shop Small on Small Business Saturday. This event is a great way to support local small businesses and buy unique handcrafted products all while keeping money in our local community.
HCC’s Small Business Center will host a Small Business Saturday Welcome Station live at the Haywood County Arts Council located at 86 North Main Street, Waynesville from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Mark your calendar now to stop by and #ShopSmall.
