In an effort to further support local businesses, Shop Local Raleigh has teamed up with the organizers of Pop-Up Raleigh, Raleigh Night Market, and The MAKRS Society to serve as a promotional partner for these area events that showcase local makers and small businesses to help spread the word about upcoming markets.
