The Claremont Neighborhood Association will hold its 23rd annual Flea Market and Street Fair on this Saturday, June 2, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wellington Street in Boston’s South End. The Street Fair includes antiques, collectibles, jewelry, art, and household goods for sale; a raffle for prizes from local merchants; face painting and balloons for children; food; and live music. All are invited and admission is free.
"The CNA Street Fair is a great opportunity for South End residents to get to know their neighbors better, and for all to enjoy a fun and festive atmosphere while raising funds to support our local parks and facilities," said Karen Bommart, CNA Board Member and one of the street fair’s organizers. "The Flea Market brings back antique vendors who have been coming for years and welcomes new artists and vendors who want to join the fun."
Proceeds from the raffle go to the Claremont Neighborhood Association, which provides educational and social programs for residents of the neighborhood and regularly contributes to organizations that improve neighborhood parks such as the South End Land Trust.
Wellington Street is located in the South End of Boston between the Southwest Corridor Park and Columbus Avenue, one block away from Massachusetts Avenue and just steps away from the Orange Line Massachusetts Avenue T stop.
Vendors, artists, or neighbors interested in renting a space in the Flea Market can sign up at www.cnaboston.org.
