How about going
shopping this weekend? It’s a great time to get started on shopping for the holidays. One central Arkansas community has activities going on so you can get a head-start on your Christmas buying while enjoying an absolutely beautiful fall afternoon in The Natural State.
Make plans to head to
Conway Sunday afternoon for the annual Downtown Conway Open House. All shops in the downtown district will be open from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and, just in time for the event, an old shop that formerly specialized in vintage clothing, has reopened with a new focus. Vintage to Vogue now features old-fashioned candies and gifts as well as handcrafted jewelry, and Arkansas Products. The shop is located at 829 Chestnut.
Since some heavy-duty shopping works up an appetite, be sure and visit the downtown restaurants, especially those that aren't usually open on Sunday.
Michelangelo's,
U.S. Pizza and
America 13-50 all offer a Sunday Brunch. If brunch isn't your thing, or you want to eat an early brunch and another meal later, you can choose from
Mike's Place,
Pia's, Faby's,
Doe's and Old Chicago Pizza. The Vintage Kitchen will have samples of their baked goods.
Over 50 shops and restaurants are located in downtown Conway. Additional information on these businesses can be found in the online
Arkansas Media Room.
