October 13 is the date to remember for the Yellow Springs
Street Fair, a unique festival that fills the streets of Yellow Springs with
people enjoying a wonderful mix of vendors, food and performers.
But remember it’s only one day, from 9 am to 5 pm with the Music Festival
starting at noon and lasting until 7pm.
Take what is already special about Yellow Springs and
multiply it on Street Fair day when over 200 vendors join the 50 shops and
galleries selling one of a kind art, beautiful hand-crafted items and unique
imports. You’ll find old favorites like Crazy Uncle Jester’s hot sauces
and new vendors such as Vintage Chic selling vintage inspired accessories
along with local favorites like Asanda Imports, Urban Handmade and Toxic
Beauty.
Food from around the world can be found on Bulldog
Alley. Old favorite Jeet will be offering up some delicious Indian fare
and new must try La Pampa will be showcasing Argentinean Bar-B-Q. Grab a
Gyro from Greek Island, some incredible Lebanese from St. Ignatius or vegetarian
selections from Columbus based Nicolasa’s. Relax at the Jackson Lytle
Lewis Food Tent where you can also enjoy entertainment throughout the
day. Acoustic musicians will perform beginning at 10am and go all
afternoon, with the Egyptian Breeze Belly Dancers performing at noon and
2. You can also slip into one of the local restaurants for a
delicious dining experience.
For a break from shopping, stop by the Music Festival &
Beer Garden at the Bryan Center from noon to 7. Sample one of many
specialty beers, including some delicious fall seasonals as you listen to the
great musical line-up all presented by Peach’s Grill.
