Hello Newsletter Readers,
This weekend, head to the district for a collection of festivities! Fall Fest kicks off this Friday, September 22nd, and goes through Sunday, September 24th. Bring your family, friends (or just yourself) and explore a bountiful harvest of activities for all ages to enjoy!
Thanks to the City of Boulder's, Boulder Social Streets community initiative, summer on 13th Street was filled with vibrant memories and joyful experiences! You danced in the street, held a picnic on the pavement, grooved to local Black artists performances, and more, alongside your fellow neighbors, local community members and businesses! Check out each event highlight reel here.
Sunday, September 24th, while enjoying Fall Fest, make your way over to 13th Street (between Arapahoe Ave. and Canyon Blvd.) for the final event of the Boulder Social Streets series: Community Art Day! From 10-4 PM, join local artists' groups and engage in community art projects from a Mobile Art Lab to a Community Chalk Art Mural!
Check out more happenings in our monthly Things to Do Downtown blog.
