3rd Weekend Fling & Holiday in the Springs

November 18-20

Kick off the Holiday shopping season at this month’s 3rd Weekend Fling in the Springs beginning Friday with ‘A Springs Illumination’ at 6pm as we light up the Springs for the holidays. Start your holiday shopping off the beaten path with later shopping hours on Friday at local shops and galleries. And enjoy free horse-drawn wagon rides around town starting in front of the Little Art Theatre from 6 to 9 pm.

Special events include Anniversary parties at Ohio Silver and Asanda Imports where you can enjoy refreshments and see some beautiful new gifts. There are also several gallery openings including “would you, could you” In A Frame at 113 Corry. Right next door at 111 Corry, the Yellow Springs Arts Council will be presenting the opening for “The Liar’s Club”, a graphic comic from Michael Fleishman celebrating World War II veterans.

Entertainment includes wine tasting and live blues from George Bieri & the Root Cellar Blues at The Emporium starting at 6:30, moving over to Peach’s at 10 for The Ark Band. See a movie at The Little Art Theatre or stop by Main Squeeze to taste and learn how to make home brewed beers.

We will also be kicking off the Yellow Springs Gift Basket Giveaway on Friday night. For every $10.00 spent in participating stores, earn a chance to win a gift basket filled with amazing gifts from over 50 participating merchants.

Give the gift of art by stopping by the Glen Helen Nature Arts and Crafts Show at the Glen Helen Building. Hours are Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm and Sunday from 11 am to 5 pm. All downtown shops will also be open both days along with 15 eateries for a quick bite or leisurely lunch.

Remember Yellow Springs throughout the holiday season as a place for incomparable gifts, a warm atmosphere and great holiday parties. For more information, please contact the Yellow Springs Chamber of Commerce at 937-767-2686 or visit www.yellowspringsohio.org.
