Downtown Scranton is buzzin’ with business this fall!
Fall Into Downtown Scranton, a project of Scranton Tomorrow, features promotions throughout the month of October encouraging everyone to support local. Our theme, “The Good of the Hive,” is creating quite a buzz as we celebrate the installation of our latest Downtown mural, which is part of artist Matt Willey’s international “The Good of the Hive” project.   When you shop and dine in Downtown Scranton, you help to create a healthy economy for everyone in your colony — family, neighbors and friends. We think that’s pretty sweet!
