The first Friday of each month, join us for “Local & Late – Shop ’til 8”. Designed for local, Lowell-area residents, downtown Lowell merchants will keep their doors open until 8 PM, giving shoppers extra time to enjoy all that Lowell’s small businesses have to offer.
Whether you’re looking for unique gifts, enjoying dinner downtown, or browsing the latest in fashion, home goods, or specialty items, shoppers can explore Lowell’s charming business community at a more convenient time. The first Friday of every month provides consistent, later shopping hours until 8 PM that our community members can count on.
Pop into a store on the way home from work, before the game, or before or after dinner. Commit to visiting a different store on the first Friday of each month, and your support could make a world of difference to a small business
