The WCDC has partnered with ArtSci Ventura to create the Westside Thrives COVIDeo Series. The purpose of the series is to promote Avenue-area business that have been able to open and to learn how they have adapted their business practices to meet the challenge of the COVID-19 outbreak.
Is your business open? – We want everyone to know!
How has your business adapted? – We want to learn from you!
Westside businesses are being creative and resourceful in meeting safety guidelines and serving their customers during the COVID crisis. We are inviting all Avenue-area businesses, whether store or home-based, to share your story of adapting. Send us video of your business operations and we will promote your efforts through our newsletter and through social media.
Ventura Spirits created the first video for Westside Thrives – check out all the measures they have taken to comply with safety standards and serve new customers while having some fun.
In our second video, Accurate Auto owner Leo Montero shares some history, some advice and talks about the impact of COVID19.
