This week hosts Thanksgiving of course, but in Annapolis, there is shopping to do and events to be seen. See what’s going on below for more.

Annapolis Shopping

This week is a big week in Annapolis shopping, not just because the holidays are approaching, but because it’s Small Business Saturday! Shop small in downtown Annapolis and in surrounding areas to benefit mom and pop stores. Some places will offer discounts and gifts. There are no tickets needed–just the desire to shop! The 29th is the date.
