Finally we’re done with Winter, made it through a gorgeous Spring and are kicking off the 2010 Boone County festival and event season with the all new Brick Street Market day this Saturday, May 15th on Main Street in Zionsville.
Formerly called the Country Market, the new Brick Street Market is upping the ante with over 100 exhibitors, featuring artwork, arts & crafts, apparel, collectibles and antiques, lined up on Zionsville’s famous cobblestone Main Street. There will also be fun for the kids – with face painting, activities and games. A food court will be available as will dining at any of Zionsville’s locally owned restaurants.
If you’re a fan of good food, live music and a fun time, Friday night the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce is hosting a special Market Eve event on May 14th – where local restaurants will be serving gourmet items, live music in the air and a guaranteed fun time for all. Also included is a spiffy shopping bag (compliments of the Zionsville Chamber) that contains money-saving discounts and offers from local retailers. Just $20 a person. Contact the Zionsville Chamber at 317-873-3836 for more information.
