Bike Rack Design Contest
This collaborative initiative with Morris Arts was designed to make our town safer while incorporating art in a meaningful new way. In 2024, we launched a Bike Rack Design Contest. Submissions were reviewed by a panel of judges and a winning design was selected. Three racks were fabricated by a local metalworker and should be installed in early Summer 2025!

August Business Roundtable
Our next Business Roundtable will take place on Monday August 11th at 5pm (Autodidact Brewery). All MP business owners and operators are invited to join us for speed networking and an engaging discussion.

Kick-off the holiday season with Morris Plains stores, restaurants and businesses for Small Business Saturday on November 29, 2025. Visit us at the Morris Plains Winter Market with your $10+ receipt from any MP business to receive the exclusive 2025 DMP ornament!

Speedy the Stone Snake
Speedwell, aka "Speedy", is an ongoing community art project made up of painted rocks from individuals, businesses, and organizations. Check him out in the alley between Mark Perrone's Barber Shop and Taylor's Consignment and add your stone.
