There’s a street party on Dickson Street on Saturday. Springfest will return after a year off last year with a full day of live music, local arts & craft vendors, and Easter Egg hunt, pancake breakfast, and of course, the traditional bed races up the street. Here’s the schedule.
The Fayetteville Farmers’ Market is also back on the square this week, and they’re planning some Easter surprises of their own. We’ve heard the old Easter Bunny might make an appearance.
Legendary singer, songwriter, and activist Joan Baez is in town for a performance at Walton Arts Center on Saturday night. It’s an 8 p.m. show. Here’s ticket info.
Also in tunes, Noah Richmond’s Little Monster is performing at Mojo’s Pints & Pies, and Boom Kinetic is at George’s.
There’s more below. Have an awesome weekend, everyone.
