A seminar intended to help small businesses in Canton develop the town’s potential will be held from 5:30 to 8 p.m. on Monday, June 4, at the Colonial Theater Annex in Canton.

“Developing Canton Businesses:  Where Are We Now?” will be a facilitated discussion that will focus on organization, such as how business, government and community can work together, and design, including the philosophical question of what feel and experience downtown Canton wants to convey. There will also be a discussion of economic restructuring and promotion.

The workshop is sponsored by the Haywood Community College Small Business Center.

Russ Seagle will be the facilitator. Seagle holds a degree in marketing from Appalachian State University and a MBA from Western Carolina University. He has served as small business center director for Southwestern Community College for 11 years. He is now an independent consultant and speaker.
