The first annual Shop Small Boutique Crawl rolls into Albion, Grayville, Carmi, New Harmony, and more on May 1st and 2nd. This exciting new event invites shoppers to grab their friends, fuel up, and explore a wide variety of local boutiques across Edwards, Wabash, White counties, and New Harmony at their own pace.

Organized by the Albion Area Chamber of Commerce, the Boutique Crawl encourages participants to pick up a special shopping map, which will be available online at albionareachamber.org starting April 25th. The event is designed to boost local businesses and offer a fun-filled shopping adventure just in time for spring.

Area boutiques and shops interested in joining the crawl can register at albionareachamber.org to be featured on the official map. Organizers note that being included will help businesses attract extra sales and increased foot traffic throughout the weekend.

Shoppers are encouraged to make the most of the two-day event and support small businesses in the region. Don’t miss this chance to enjoy exclusive deals, discover new favorites, and celebrate local entrepreneurship.
