Supporting small, local businesses will be a huge part of the holidays this year. Due to COVID-19, many small businesses are struggling financially because of the lack of customers and modified store hours. Here are 5 of the local shops and galleries that you can support this holiday season:

Newkirk Salon Spa

Newkirk Salon Spa offers spa services, haircuts, hair color, nail art, makeup and waxing. As an Aveda Salon, they sell Aveda and Davines products, ranging from hair masks to makeup.

During the holidays, Newkirk hosts their annual toy drive through Toys For Tots. (INCLUDE MORE INFO FROM INTERVIEW)
