The Avenues Street Fair has existed in some form since 1978. My uncle and business partner has had a booth at the fair for around 30 years. I’ll be joining him again this year for my 8th fair. It’s always a great time to say hello to neighbors and meet the local artisans and business people. There is a kids parade at the start of the fair, live music at the stages at either end, tons of delicious local food (including a wine garden in Cucina’s parking lot - can you say FROZÈ!).

This year the fair is on September 7th from 9am to 6pm and is on 2nd Ave between M and R Streets. And it’s always free! Click the link below for more info and come by and say hello!
