Additional Information
Small Business Saturday highlights the strength of Oak Park’s 1,300+ independent businesses and reinforces ongoing local initiatives like Shopper’s Reward Program and the Pick Oak Park campaign, which encourages residents to shop local throughout the holiday season. These efforts help keep dollars circulating in the community, support local jobs, and strengthen our neighborhood business districts. It’s also a moment to celebrate, encourage, and empower our youth entrepreneurs, whose pop-up shops and creative ventures continue to grow, inspire, and build new opportunities for one another right here at home.
