Old Town Gets Artsy

are you coming to the Old Town Alexandria Arts and Crafts Fair?

 June 13th, from 3-8pm at Market Square, 301 King St., Alexandria, VA 22314

come down to Old Town to enjoy more than 70 art vendors, and of course the Boutique District.

admission is free and dogs are welcome!

 pro tips:

>>steer clear of parking on King Street! there are multiple "pay to park" lots,

 limited free parking, or you can get off at the King Street Metro 

stop and walk towards the water/take the free trolley

>>wear wedges, flats, or something comfortable to walk in {the cobblestones are no joke}

>> stop in the shops on King Street & say hello... we will have the AC on for y'all!
