Mathews Market Days opens bright and early this Friday, offering festival-goers two full days of fun, food, entertainment, and arts and crafts for all ages on the Mathews Court Green.
The Market Days Committee will open the festival with a brief welcome at 9 a.m. at the pavilion on Put-In Creek, followed immediately by entertainment that will last throughout each day.
According to festival vice chair Casey Pisarek, 74 vendors will be on hand, 51 with various arts and crafts on the Court Green, 14 providing information along Brickbat Road, and nine offering a variety of foods on Court Street.
“The goal is to find something to do wherever you walk,” said Pisarek.
Vendors will be able to set up their booths from noon to 5 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 7, said Pisarek, and booths will remain in place for two days, closing at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Some food vendors will remain open for the Saturday night street dance.
