Heartbeat of Halsey: The Shopping Tour

​Join us for “Heartbeat of Halsey,” a high-energy, community-powered closing celebration for Small Business Week where small business owners open their doors and their stories to the public. Walk with us down Halsey Street, support local entrepreneurs, connect with Newark’s changemakers, and celebrate everything that makes our city thrive.

​🌟 What’s Happening (4PM - 6PM)

• ​Story Stops
  Entrepreneurs share the real behind-the-scenes of starting and running their brick-and-mortar businesses. Hear how they got started, why they chose Halsey, and what it takes to grow in Newark.

• ​Shop While You Stroll
  Each stop is a chance to show love to small businesses—grab something, taste something, or try something new.

• ​Community Connection
  The Divine 9, local orgs, and residents are invited to walk together, connect across neighborhoods, and keep our local economy vibrant and strong.
