The Harvard Square Business Association is excited to announce the 34th Annual MayFair in Harvard Square happening on Sunday, May 7th, 2017 from noon -6pm. This annual spring time tradition features three stages of music, over 35 dance troupes, food, crafts, a chalk art gallery and entertainment for all ages. Other highlights include Roaming Railroad train rides for the young and the young at heart, four beer gardens sponsored by Alden & Harlow, Beat Brasserie, Grafton Street Pub & Grill, John Harvard’s Brew House, and The Sinclair, a Victorian children’s activity area, and over one hundred thousand happy people! In addition, MayFair features over 60 artisans and merchants selling arts and crafts and jewelry and boasts over 50 food vendors serving up international fare and local favorites.
Don’t forget to check out the annual Chalk on the Walk located on Church Street! Each year, the Cambridge Rotary Club’s Chalk on the Walk raises thousands of dollars for local charities. The art of chalk street painting has a history stretching back as far as the Italian Renaissance. Corporate and individual patrons sponsor painting squares and artists donate their creativity and talents. Prizes are awarded to the artists and proceeds from the event go to local Cambridge charities and scholarships.
