The 3rd
Weekend Fling starting May 18 will be jam-packed with lots of fun things to do
all over downtown. From late night shopping and gallery hopping, to dining and
a variety of live entertainment, there will be lots to keep you busy and happy.
Headlining the Fling is
the Cyclops Fest Pre-party “Dynamite Soul: An Evening of Gimmick Free

the heart of downtown Y.S.

festivities at 6, Dynamite Soul will be a showcase for
Ohio hip-hop artists and DJ’s.
Featured artists will be Turntable Philanthropy ( Columbus

live graffiti, screen-printing demos and a craft beer and food garden sponsored
by Ye Olde Trail Tavern. And at 9 pm, Soul Fire Tribe will be lighting the
night with an exciting performance in front of Asanda Imports.
There will also be art
openings around town from 6-9 pm. Yellow Springs Arts Council will host an
artist reception for their latest exhibit “Dancing with the Universe: Masks
and Beyond” at their beautiful new gallery at

Usual Friday evening
