The Downtown Schenectady Improvement Corporation is encouraging people to shop small businesses all season.

The group is out with a video reminding people to spend their money locally this holiday season.

Downtown Schenectady saw a successful Small Business Saturday, but the goal is to keep that momentum through the entire holiday season.

Shoppers are invited to discover the unique treasures and one-of-a-kind experiences offered by businesses in Schenectady’s downtown.

If you’re looking for more than shops, you can also find great restaurants, hands-on museums and the arts.
When you shop small, you make a big impact on the whole community, the organization said.
