HOUSTON – If you’re looking for a feel-good way to celebrate Small Business Week, head out to Fulshear for a special event that’s all about shopping local and supporting the people behind the products.
“Shop Fulshear First,” a family-friendly night market, is happening Thursday, May 7 from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Irene Stern Community Center—and it’s shaping up to be a night full of connection, creativity, and community pride.
Hosted by Tiffany’s Tiny Boutique & Flower Truck, this event brings together more than 20 small businesses—many of them local residents—for an evening designed to highlight just how powerful it can be to shop small. From handmade goods and boutique finds to fresh flowers and one-of-a-kind gifts, it’s the perfect place to pick up something meaningful while meeting the people who made it.
And there’s an even deeper story behind it all. With the recent closing of Painted Tree, many local vendors have had to pivot and find new ways to connect with customers.
Tiffany’s Tiny Boutique is home to 17 small, women-owned businesses under one roof, including three young entrepreneurs who are already building their dreams and serving their community in inspiring ways.
With Mother’s Day, Teacher Appreciation Week, Nurse Appreciation Week, and graduation all right around the corner, “Shop Fulshear First” offers a chance to find thoughtful, local gifts that go beyond the ordinary. It’s shopping with purpose—and a reminder that every purchase makes a real impact.
