Celebrate Gaithersburg Festival

 

Artisans & Crafters Needed

 

The 31st Annual Celebrate Gaithersburg in Olde Towne Festival will draw an entire community to Gaithersburg’s historic City center for a day of food, fun, entertainment and family activities. The City is still seeking local and international artisans and crafters who would like to sell unique jewelry, textiles, and one-of-a-kind hand crafted items. The last day for applications is September 7, 2012.

 

The one-day event is scheduled for Sunday, September 16, 2012, and will include several stages of live entertainment, with the Smithereens headlining the day, a variety of local food trucks, and special Zones geared for all ages and interests.

 

Nearly 20,000 people attended the festival last year.

 

Application forms are available online at www.gaithersburgmd.gov/events, or call the Gaithersburg Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture at 301-258-6305.

 

This blog was provided by the City of Gaithersburg.

Good Morning Roy,

You're such a great Ambassador for your community and I know others on ActiveRain would agree with me that you do a lot of good for all of us too.

I'm sure the event will draw crowds of people and I hope if you are there, many people will recognize you with your camera in hand taking great photographs.

Have a wonderful holiday weekend!!!

Hi Roy and Delores,

I would like to see this one. I bet there are all kinds of people in the parade from back in the 1700's and 1800's I would really like to see this parade and celebration.

Have a good holiday weekend in the Kentlands and at the festival in Gaithersburg.

Best, Clint McKie

Thanks so much for your comments.  Your feedback is always appreciated.  Gaithersburg is in a very good location for festivals.  The city is located in the middle of Montgomery County which has a population of close to a million.
