Celebration to showcase local wares, talents, and businesses

Ashland.news staff report

The Ashland Chamber’s Spring Ashland Sidewalk Celebration will return this year from May 16-18. 

Community creatives and partners are invited to showcase their music, dance, crafts, art, and nonprofit or business information during the inclusive event that will span from the Ashland Public Library down to Lovejoy’s Tea Room. 

Registered participants will be paired with a designated space downtown to fundraise, sell, and promote goods, services, and/or talent.

This is an opportunity that works to support the Ashland community and local businesses.

Participation is free, but requires vendors to sign up for one day or for the entire weekend.

Please visit ashlandchamber.com for registration details.

Community Partners should register by April 30 so they can be assigned to a location and have time to promote attendance.
