In 2010, American Express launched the first Small Business Saturday, which takes place the day after Black Friday in response to the damage done to small businesses during the Recession in the late 2000s. The event adopted the slogan “#ShopSmall” and the movement took off from there. The #ShopSmall movement is certainly making an impact in West Reading.

During the Holiday season, Penn Avenue as a whole will offer extended hours, carriage rides, music, and merchant specials!
