Note: For wheelchair accessibility: we encourage individuals to use the designated parking spots at the center. A ramp from Main Street on the east end of the Frances Anderson Center can be used to gain access to the artist booths on the playfield. The terrain on the playfield is uneven and the grass can make it difficult to maneuver a wheelchair.
PLEASE DON’T BRING YOUR DOG
We strongly discourage you from bringing your dog. Trust us, your dog won’t have nearly as much fun as you will, and you’ll have to spend all your time cleaning up after your dog or keeping them from lifting a leg on an artist’s booth. Also, you don’t want to have to focus on keeping your dog’s leash from tripping other patrons or possibly manage dog fights while trying to hang onto your purchases. Dogs are not allowed inside the buildings at any time.
Service animals in uniform, of course, are welcome.
