Celebrate West Hartford & Farmington Antiques Weekend

There are two fun outdoor events going on this weekend that you might want to check out.

Celebrate West Hartford is a free outdoor festival where you can shop at craft booths, enjoy rides and games, sample some delicious food from local eateries, and participate in a 5K road race. The event runs Saturday from 10-6 and Sunday from 12-6 in the West Hartford Center and Blue Back Square area.

Farmington Antiques Weekend is also taking place this Saturday and Sunday. Whether a browser or a buyer, you’ll have a good time looking at the wares of over 400 vendors. Saturday’s $10 admission is good for both days. The show runs from 8-5 on Saturday. If you only want to visit on Sunday, admission is $7 and hours are 10-5. The event is held at the Farmington Polo Grounds at 152 Town Farm Road.

I’m taking a much needed day off tomorrow and will be hitting up the antique show in the morning and volunteering at the West Hartford Dog Park booth at Celebrate West Hartford in the afternoon. Hope to see you there and don’t forget to wear your sunscreen! Also, this would be a great opportunity for weekend plans with friends…
