How The "Meet Me In Montrose" Campaign Began

One year ago at the monthly MONTROSE SHOPPING PARK ASSOCIATION board meeting we had the pleasure of a visit from CITY OF GLENDALE Councilmembers PAULA DEVINE and VARTAN GHARPETIAN. They are pictured here with MSPA President ANDRE ORDUBEGIAN, 3rd from left, and MSPA board members. They came bearing good news for us Montrose business owners. The City was working on a new campaign called #MEETMEINMONTROSE It would include a video, swag, and a hashtag campaign!

Since then over 500 photos have the #meetmeinmontrose hashtag on popular social media sites. The goal is to get many more. With three blocks of winding tree lined streets, filled with one of a kind shops & cafes, creative pics are begging to be taken! Here Spring is in full bloom! If your feet get tired you can pop into OLIVIA, pictured here! New to Montrose they offer a Mani/Pedi with hot stone massage for only $30!

While you are making new discoveries and snapping those shots, breathe in the abundant fresh lavender planted throughout the shopping village! You may even want to take a dance lesson or two at our popular ARTHUR MURRAY DANCE STUDIO! So MEET ME In MONTROSE! There's nothing like it!
