July 16th: Through the Decades

Artists and food vendors will open at noon. Guests can musically “travel through the decades” at one of our 3 stages beginning at 1 p.m. Our children’s activities will begin at noon with a visit from Bobber, the water safety dog. Kids will be able to create large puppets from recycled products, showcasing them in a parade at 6 pm through downtown Sharon.
