Event Type

The Gloversville Downtown Development Specialist (DDS) at the Fulton County Center for Regional Growth (CRG), in partnership with the Fulton Montgomery Regional Chamber of Commerce, invites the local business community and area residents to attend Business After Hours at Mohawk Harvest Cooperative Market on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

The campaign

The upcoming Small Business Saturday campaign will be kicked off at that time. Designed to celebrate Small Business Month throughout November, the initiative aims to highlight local merchants and drive foot traffic into Downtown Gloversville, as well as to the Chamber’s 600-plus members, ahead of Black Friday (November 27) and Small Business Saturday (November 28).

“Shopping locally is about much more than a transaction. It is a conscious investment in the character, heartbeat, and future of our neighborhoods. When we choose to spend our dollars at independent storefronts, we are directly supporting our friends and neighbors, creating local jobs, and ensuring that our communities remain vibrant, unique places to call home,” said Jennifer Donovan, Downtown Development Specialist.

About Small Business Saturday

Founded by American Express in 2010, Small Business Saturday was created to support independent merchants and redirect holiday spending toward local economies. By 2011, the movement gained official national backing from the U.S. Senate and the Small Business Administration (SBA), quickly evolving into a cherished nationwide tradition held annually on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

What to expect

As part of the month-long celebration, promotional tote bags containing coupons, special offers, flyers, gift cards, and event details from participating Downtown Gloversville merchants will be prepared for distribution starting November 9.Numerous downtown businesses are featured directly inside the bags, with additional participating merchants highlighted across official community social media channels. At the After Hours, Chamber and DDS representatives will present the Mohawk Harvest manager with the first promotional bag of the season.

Meet local business owners

Attendees at the November 4 Business After Hours event will have the opportunity to network with fellow community leaders, learn more about the Mohawk Harvest Cooperative Market, meet local business owners, and learn more about the ongoing efforts to keep holiday spending local. Participants are invited to stay for the store’s Open Mic Night, taking place at 6:30 p.m. as part of Mohawk Harvest’s monthly first-Wednesday event tradition.
