We know how it is: The weekend sneaks up on you. Monday hits and you’re on the run, keeping all the plates in the air, and then Friday afternoon hits and you have no idea what to do with your weekend, and if you’re not careful it’s another two days spent binge-watching some inscrutable British television show on Netflix you’re not even certain you enjoyed. Fear not, because you may have forgotten the Fall Arts & Music Festival is this weekend! From 11am to 6pm on Sunday 9/27, you can stroll Washington Street starting at 7th Street and enjoy hundreds of artists and local craftspeople selling their wares, along with rides, games, and face painting for the kids, fair food—and, of course, plenty of music split between three stages.

The Music

At least, that’s what we’re all doing here at the Life in Hoboken offices. See you there!
