WEEKEND shopping & food CRAWL
December 13th & 14th • 1PM – 6PM
Two days of intentional shopping, food, and neighborhood joy!
MEET-UP LOCATION
Make Manifest
📍 382–384 Tompkins Avenue
Check in, grab your name tag, and your crawl guide
(listing all stops, specials, and the Tastes of Tompkins menu), and then head out with your group.
Prefer to roll with your own crew instead of a guided group? No problem, still RSVP
so we have enough crawl guide and info for you to pick up at check-in before you start your route.
Final route details may shift as more businesses join. RSVPing ensures you get all updates before the crawl.
Note:
The crawl may wrap earlier than 6PM, this time window gives us enough room to enjoy all our stops without rushing.
