Small Business Week is almost here, and we’re gearing up to spread the local love.

We’ve partnered with some of Charlotte’s small businesses to celebrate the folks who make up the backbone of our local economy.

From Sunday, May 4 to Saturday, May 10, you can expect Q+A’s with local entrepreneurs that shine a light on what it’s like being a part of the Queen City’s small business community.

From enjoying 15% off an item from The Brass Bird to attending a free class at Gritbox Fitness, there will be plenty of ways to support Charlotte’s small businesses.
