GIFTMAS 2020
When you think about the vibrant Main Streets of Pittsburgh’s liveliest neighborhoods, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Shops. Large and small. Cool and kitschy. Flowers and frocks. Baked goods and blazers. Diamonds and dresses. Boots and baguettes. Shops whose reasons for being are so caried that a walk down the street nourishes the eyes and fires up the imagination. Stores whose owners know us so well that they know what we need before we do, and people behind the counter who can remind us of what we bought last week…and steer us toward just the right gift for the occasion at hand.
Lively stores are part and parcel of healthy communities. In 2020, they need our support more than ever. If we want those walks up and down our streets to be satisfying, we need to invest in the this holiday season by buying from them.
