About the event
Join us for an afternoon of live music, local food, and drinks along the riverfront. Enjoy alcohol from The New Northwestern and food from East Village vendors, then make your way into the neighborhood to shop, dine, and explore. Local artist Brian Herrin will kick off the event with live music starting at noon and going until 3pm, presented by Love, Tito’s. Bring your blankets to enjoy the jams before hitting the East Village.
Held just as the Downtown Farmers’ Market wraps up, this event creates the perfect opportunity to keep the day going across the river in the East Village.
