This is always a wonderful event, with everything from quilts to handmade chocolates for sale.  The church generally does a great hot lunch and bake sale fundraiser, and there is often a good second-hand book sale as well!  Come on down and remember to bring your reusable tote to carry home your new art!

Saturday, June 22
noon to 5:00

It's the 25th anniversary year of this great local event.  Over 80 artists, musicians, and local authors doing readings!  Beer garden!  Food trucks!  This event is always a wonderful celebration of Medford's lively neighborhood arts and culture, and a great day out.  Eat a homemade ice cream sandwich from Frozen Hoagies, have a beer from Medford Brewing Company, and listen to live music next to the Mystic River.  I'll be there all day and hope to see you!
