The Brickyard at Rock the Block and the Mural Festival!

This year the Mural Festival is HUGE!  After a week and a half of work, the city is wrapping it up with a Rock the Block party that starts around 1pm on Saturday, the 18th, and goes until the early evening – the official end is 9pm, but there are after-parties galore!

And WE’LL BE THERE!  (Where?  25 Exchange Street is the central location, but all up and down Mt Vernon, too! – we’ll be packing up around 5-6pm, so don’t be late…)

Here’s what we’re planning:

  • A Maker’s Market – meet the makers, see their stuff, maybe take some home!
  • A Maker’s Flea – supplies, hackables, re-usables and extras, at flea market prices.
  • Learn to Knit!  Hands-on knitting workshop will get you knitting in a minute!  …or two.
  • A FREE Bike Clinic – bring your ride down and get a tune-up and learn the basics of bike maintenance – keep it safe, keep it reliable.  If you’re planning on coming for the Bike Clinic, please register here: EventBrite
  • A SUMO Robot battle!  Pick up the controls and test your driving skills against your buddies!  Pick a robot, maybe add some character, and go into battle…  Pikachu robots anybody?

In the meantime, got something to sell, teach, or share?  Send us a note!  We’re not charging fees to participate, but you must bring your own tables, chairs and tent.  Please let us know at least a week in advance (that’s, like, NOW!), so we can be sure we have space for you and get the word out!
