2021 in Pictures: Celebrating Local Businesses

Thank you for continuing to support local businesses. It’s been incredible to witness the strength and creativity of our community.

As we move forward into the new year, we want to take a moment to celebrate and reflect on the accomplishments of the past year… a year of rebounding, adapting, and persevering. We saw businesses reopening, new businesses welcoming customers for the first time, and established businesses celebrating milestone anniversaries. (And downtown restaurants served lots of delicious food too!)

We hope 2022 continues to be filled with brighter days for all.

To celebrate the achievements of our local businesses, here’s a look back at your favorite Instagram posts in 2021:
