They uncover the rich history of the area and how it became a hub of activity, home to a mix of businesses. But it's not just about commerce—it's about community. Alysia and Alaina explain how the Second Saturday, a monthly event celebrating local businesses, artists, and musicians within the Blackstone District, promotes more than just commerce—it promotes creativity and community building.
