Valerie Rochon, Tourism Manager for the Greater Portsmouth Chamber of Commerce, reports that member retailers are planning events to take place September 8, 2011.
“Fashion’s Night Out began in New York City in 2009 as an after-hours shopping extravaganza with special events and entertainment. We are delighted Portsmouth is joining in the fashion fun this September 8, 2011,” said Rochon. Rochon reports several retailers have signed up to participate.
