MARIETTA - The Fall Shop Hop in downtown Marietta, hosted by Marietta Main Street, will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
More than a dozen businesses will participate and can be recognized by the balloons outside their entrances. Each business has donated a gift card or item toward a prize basket, and every purchase at participating shops will earn a raffle ticket for the drawing.
Clutch Collective will be collecting good used books for its Adult Book Fair on Sunday.
The seasonal Shop Hops bring the downtown retailers, all independently owned, a much appreciated boost in traffic, Jennifer Tinkler, executive director of Marietta Main Street, said.
"There's something special about spending a day in downtown Marietta, and our Shop Hops showcase that perfectly," Tinkler said. "They bring people together to shop, dine, explore and discover the businesses that give our downtown its unique character. "
Seasonal Shop Hops are one program hosted by Marietta Main Street with a mission to bring visitors downtown to enjoy the many independently owned businesses.
