One street. Forty makers. One long Saturday.

Lantern Row Street Fair fills the whole block with bakers, potters, plant people and a brass band. Come hungry. Stay for the lanterns.

What's on

Eat, make, play, wander.

Six things you will find between the first booth and the last lantern.

  1. Taste

    Food from down the road

    Fresh bread, pickles, lemonade and barbecue, all made within a few blocks of the row.

  2. Make

    Things made by hand

    Candles, knits, pottery and prints from the people who made them. Ask them anything.

  3. Play

    A corner for kids

    Face paint, ring toss and a lantern parade at one o'clock. Strollers welcome.

  4. Listen

    Live on the stage

    A local brass band at four, then the open mic until the lanterns come on.

  5. Grow

    A free plant swap

    Bring a cutting, take a cutting. Seed packets and window-box starters, too.

  6. Meet

    Your neighbors

    The library friends, the block-party crew and a tool-lending table. Sign up for something.

Good to know

Before you come.

Is it really free?

Yes. Walking the row costs nothing. Food and goods are priced by each booth, and most take cards.

What if it rains?

The fair runs rain or shine. Every booth has a tent, and the stage has a roof.

Can I bring my dog?

Leashed dogs are welcome on the row. Please keep them clear of the food booths.

Where do I park?

There is free bike parking at the south end of the row. Cars are best left on the side streets, a short walk away.

See you Saturday

The lanterns come on at seven.

Come early for the bread. Stay late for the band.
