The big downtown event will be held from noon-6 p.m. on Friday, May 2, and continue the next day, Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
It will include street vendors and food trucks on Market Street, along with a variety of activities and specials in most of the downtown stores.
This event is presented by the Historic Downtown Clinton Merchants Association. There is no admission charge, and plenty of free parking is available in the city parking lot on Commerce Street and the new city lot at Main and North Hicks streets.
Antique vendors will line Market Street rain or shine, and the downtown brick-and-mortar stores will be open to visitors, many offering specials for the event.
All of downtown loves to take part in the Spring Antique Festival, which kicks off the summer selling season for the downtown stores, and brings thousands of visitors – most of them from out of town – to Historic Downtown Clinton.
“Nobody does antiques quite like Clinton; just ask Martha Stewart!” says a post on the Historic Downtown Clinton website.
