Indy has a community of people who support everything local – restaurants, retail stores, breweries, food trucks, and more. This Saturday, November 25 aims to extend that community and encourage all to Shop Small and Shop Local.

Small Business Saturday started in 2010 when American Express wanted to help communities and businesses across America. This is a good way to show it takes a community's support for a business to prosper. Indy is what we make it, and if you #LoveIndy, make sure you stop by a local business. Find something new here to see all the businesses in the Indy area that are participating.

Where's Mike G. going on Small Biz Saturday?
