Summer Strolls Start This Weekend

This weekend marks the first for the summer of the Park Slope Fifth Avenue BID’s Summer Strolls, where portions of 5th Avenue are closed to traffic for a few hours in the evening so neighbors can enjoy the weather, dance, eat, and explore the street in a way we don’t normally get to.

Here are the dates for the Summer Strolls on 5th Avenue, which take place from 5-9pm:

Saturday, July 18: 5th Avenue from 12th-18th Streets

Saturday, July 25: 5th Avenue from 12th-18th Streets

Saturday, August 15: 5th Avenue from Dean-Sterling Street

Saturday, August 22: 5th Avenue from Dean-Sterling Street

The Doggy Fashion Show at Freddy’s Bar is happening at this Saturday’s Summer Stroll, as well as street chess, face painting, a giant rock climbing wall, a bouncy house and activities by Puppetry Arts, dancing in the street, live music, a photo booth, juggling, mini golf, vintage cars and more.Next week, South Brooklyn Shakespeare will perform Much Ado About Nothing near 18th Street and again on August 15 near Dean Street.
