This Saturday, San Antonians will get to experience downtown in a way like never before. There’s a holiday drive-thru taking place that features a festival of lights, selfies with Santa (from distance, of course), and “snow” thanks to 100,000 pounds of ice.
It’s one way Centro San Antonio is trying to drum up support for the downtown businesses, many small ones, trying to survive the pandemic. In this week’s edition of San Antonio’s Voice, CEO Matt Brown and Economic Development Director Sarah Esserlieu talk to Randy Beamer about their efforts.
The two explain how the pandemic revealed there wasn’t one specific organization dedicated to small businesses in downtown. So in response, they created “Main Street Business,” a project devoted to helping these companies. Brown and Esserlieu go into detail about their work and the help available to companies downtown.
Centro San Antonio’s mission is to make downtown San Antonio more beautiful, more prosperous, and more welcoming. And if you’re interested, the holiday drive-thru takes place from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday at East Cesar E. Chavez and Hemisfair Boulevard.
