Hey, neighbor!

 

Have something to share?

Our monthly newsletter helps keep downtown connected, both behind the scenes and out in the spotlight. Whether it’s a note for fellow businesses or an event you want the public to know about, this is your place to share it. Submit your update and let’s keep our community informed, engaged, and thriving.

  • Submissions are open to businesses, nonprofits, and organizations located within the Downtown Walla Walla district.

    If you're not sure whether you're in the district, contact us and we will help confirm.

  • You may submit content for one or both newsletters:

    • See You Downtown (public-facing): Events, promotions, specials, or anything intended for the general community. Ticketed events are welcome as long as they are open to the public.

    • The Merchant Monthly (business-to-business): News, announcements, or opportunities meant for other downtown businesses. This can include internal updates, collaborations, or general district-related news.

  • We include content that:

    • Is submitted by the stated deadline

    • Includes all required details in the form

    • Is clearly tied to downtown Walla Walla

    Submissions that do not meet these criteria may be held for the next issue or excluded. If we are unable to include something, we will reach out to explain why.

  • Both newsletters are sent on the second Tuesday of each month.

    To be included, submissions must be received by the end of the month prior.

    • Use a clear title and short description

    • Double check dates, times, and links

    • Include a photo or flyer when possible

    • Complete all required fields in the form

    • Are missing key details (date, time, description, etc.)

    • Don’t relate to the downtown Walla Walla district

    • Are primarily promotional without a clear community or business tie-in

  • Do I need to submit by a certain date?

    Yes. Submit by the last day of the month to be included in the next newsletter.

    How often can I submit?

    As often as you have updates to share, just be sure each submission is complete and received by the deadline.

    Will every submission be included?

    We include as much as space allows and prioritize content that is complete, connected to downtown, and appropriate for the intended audience. If we are not able to include something, we’ll follow up with you.

    Can I submit images or links?

    Yes. Including a flyer, photo, or event link helps us promote your update more effectively.

    What makes a strong submission?

    • Clear title and brief description

    • Accurate dates, times, and links

    • Relevant to downtown businesses or the public

    • Complete and submitted on time

    • Supporting images or flyers when available

    What kind of submissions are not included?

    We may not include submissions that are missing key details, not connected to downtown, or primarily promotional without broader community relevance.

    Can I update my submission after sending it?

    Possibly. We’ll do our best to accommodate updates depending on the timeline.

  • If you have questions about your submission, are unsure whether it’s a good fit, or need to make updates after submitting, contact Mallory Nash at mallory@downtownwallawalla.com.
