Take in historic Seminary Street while having fun and connecting with the community.
An opportunity to get outside, relax, breathe deeply, visit with your friends and enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of Historic Seminary Street as you browse the shops for the latest must-haves, listen to the live, local music and either visit one of our fine restaurants or sample their offerings on the street.
We will have live, local music, the merchants will be rolling out the red carpet with fun new products and fun activities, free children's enrichment activities, adult beverage sampling (adult beverages require a valid photo ID!) and many of the Seminary Street restaurants will be out on the street selling food to make you happy and beverages to make you happier! Bring a lawn chair as seating is limited!
