A city-wide event encourages shoppers to “Make it Maryville” this weekend.

Maryville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Lily White said several businesses will be offering discounts, giveaways and more during the Make it Maryville Shop Hop on Saturday

“In the last couple years we’ve had several smaller boutiques open up that are locally owned and they, as a group of women, just got together and said, ‘How can we help each other, what can we do to make Maryville kind of a shopping destination,’ and they came up with the Shop Hop,” White said. “They do a couple throughout the year, they always do one right around Christmas and then the summer one is the biggest one.”

The Make It Maryville Shop Hop takes place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday at boutiques throughout Maryville. For more information, visit the event’s Facebook page.
