The third Thursday of each month the Rogers Lowell Chamber convenes merchant meetings in various locations in Downtown Rogers. Business owners and their teams talk about ways the Chamber can help them grow their business while sharing tips and ideas for our downtown community to collaborate and cultivate continued success.  

• DTR business owners and their teams gather to share news and ideas while connecting over coffee and conversation.

• The meet-up provides a forum to become familiar with the changes taking place in this rapidly growing business community.

• A key mission of the Chamber is to support small business and entrepreneurial development along with economic development for our downtown sector.

Ozark Beer Company is collaborating with local artists to reimagine the downtown Rogers Brewery’s backyard as a family-friendly place for welcoming
the community and hosting public events. In addition to expanding seating space for patrons, the brewery aims to have the ability to host popular programming like festivals, artist fairs, and swap-meets without the threat of rainouts or the need to block off Arkansas St., and to make the integration of art a priority as development of the back yard takes shape.

Downtown Rogers event venue, Brick & Mortar, has partnered with media production company, Arli Media, to host their first-ever SNAPS NWA. This curated pop-up event offers patrons an interactive experience where they capture selfies in themed booths designed by regional artists and creatives. Timed tickets are available for the event taking place Thursday, February 2 through Sunday 5, 2023 at Brick & Mortar on Union Block, 120 W Walnut. The Downtown Rogers interactive experience is sponsored by Rogers Art on the Bricks, a program of Rogers Lowell Chamber. 

As Valentines Day approaches, the pop-up event theme is aptly named "All You Need is Love," and features the creative work of five regional artists representing a range of styles and art mediums. Artists include Maryanne Stewart, Kylie Meador, Shelley Mouber, Shelby Nichols, and Ryan Freeman Burchfield.

The dramatic lifestyle change made by the owners of Downtown Rogers Business Mavis WineCo. caught the attention of Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette Profiles Editor, April Wallace, and Photographer, Charlie Kaijo.

Jeffrey Barnett and Meghan McDonald, were busy Hollywood TV and film industry professionals who took breaks each year to visit their NW Arkansas family. The onset of COVID, and the temporary, yet total shut down of TV and film production, gave them a chance to reflect on their California lifestyle and make the move to pursue a well thought out dream of changing careers and leaving the demanding, fast paced entertainment industry to move halfway across the country to Rogers, Arkansas. The Profiles article, found in section D, pages 1 and 2, of the Sunday, January 22 issue explains, "Barnett and McDonald moved to Northwest Arkansas amid the pandemic to open Mavis Wine Co., which since its opening has become Arkansas' first natural wine bar and bottle shop."
