Since there are no residences on this block, this should prove to be less disruptive to the neighborhood residents than the closing of 6th A venue East between Lewis and Sommerville Streets, Our plans include the set up of a tent and/or freestanding games/stands on the street in this area. For purposes of tent setup and takedown, we would like to close off this area from 3:00 p.m., Friday evening, June 24 until 6:00 p.rn., Monday evening, June 27. Festival activities would only be held on Sunday, June 26. Please feel free to contact us for any additional information that may be necessary for this request.
