within the walls wednesdays on facebook your business could be next! Center City Development Corporation has been running our weekly “Within the Walls Wednesdays” every Wednesday on Facebook. Each Wednesday, a new Central Business District Business is featured on Center City’s Facebook page with a photo of the inside of their store and a fun fact, chosen by the business owner. This is a great, free way that we try to get more exposure for local businesses. Once we post the weekly “Within the Walls Wednesdays” post, viewers share, repost, like, and comment on the pictures, increasing the views and gaining awareness for each business featured. If your business has not been featured yet, don’t worry. You will be soon! Think of a fun fact that you would like shared about your business and send it to Kaitlin by e-mail at kaitlinv@mycentercity.com or call 962-8151.
Take a look at our past “Within the Walls Wednesdays” posts on Facebook and check back every Wednesday to see which Central Business District business is featured for the Fun Fact of the week! Next week might be you!
The last weekend of September was host to the Third Annual Oktoberfest in Richmond’s Historic Depot District.
Compnay. People had fun playing games, listening to live music, browsing locally made goods and crafts, and more!
Some festival attendees dressed in their best German attire to party. Beer and brats were the the diet for the day, and festival attendees were able to try locally made beer from the Depot District’s newest microbrewer, New Boswell Brewing
Oktoberfest is an annual event made possible by the businesses and visitors of the Depot District. Thanks to all the businesses who helped to make this event possible and aided in another year of success for the event.
