It’s an interesting weekend with festivals, art walking tours, a vintage market & back to school shopping!

1. The Gottingen Uptown Festival  is happening Saturday from 1-6. This street-wide event builds on the celebration of Gottingen Street’s 250th anniversary.

2. Neat Repeats Consignment is hosting a Spring/Summer Sale on a load of children’s items including nearly new clothes, books, games, toys and so much more.
