The weather and restrictions are starting to change. But we still need to keep supporting local retailers! The Evanston stores, galleries, and other storefront businesses listed below are currently open and ready to welcome you with goods and services, as well as shopping options such as curbside pickup and other conveniences which are still available at many locations.
As Illinois moves into the Bridge Phase, stores will have expanded new capacity limits. But those limitations mean that our beloved Evanston shops still need our support to survive and thrive.
