The quirky collection of small businesses on Magazine Street provides an enjoyable, locally based opportunity to cross items off on your Christmas list. The Magazine Street Merchants Association is sweetening holiday shopping with “Merriment on Magazine” on Saturday (Dec. 3).
The participating businesses will offer special treats and exclusive holiday offerings for Saturday only, from noon to 5 p.m.
Dating back to the early days of the expansion of the city beyond the original French Quarter, Magazine Street is a six-mile stretch of businesses, restaurants and bars with their own character.
The day provides shopping specials beyond Black Friday and Small Business Saturday, notes Natalie Steuer, the director of the Casey Langteau Art Gallery, a Merriment on Magazine particpant. “We love our community of businesses here on Magazine Street and are always thrilled by the turnout for community events,” she said.
The participants are listed below, and their individual specials can be found here.
