This year’s Atlantic Antic (photo above from a previous year) will take place on Atlantic Avenue between Hicks Street and Fourth Avenue this coming Sunday, September 29, from noon until 6:00 p.m., rain or shine. Local merchants will be represented, with special deals for the occasion, along with food, music, dancers, visual artists, clothing vendors, and fun sites for kids. There’s a festival map here. It’s sponsored by the Atlantic Avenue Local Development Corporation.
The Brooklyn Book Festival will have its always popular Children’s Day on Saturday, September 28 from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM at Brooklyn Commons. There’s a schedule of events here. The Festival Day is on Sunday the 29th from 10:00 AM until 6:00 PM at locations on Borough Hall Plaza, Columbus Park, and Cadman Plaza East, as well as nearby indoor venues. There’s a complete schedule here.
Open Streets Montague this Sunday will transform Montague between Henry and Hicks into Rue Montague, as L’Appartement 4F invites you to “[e]xperience the magic of Paris on Montague Street … [s]avor fresh crepes, enjoy live music, and learn French with CouCou — all without even needing a passport.” As was done last Sunday, sundaes, charcuterie, and wine will be served, and you may take the wine to the adults-only Sip Spot near the corner of Montague and Henry. Traffic will be closed (except for emergency vehicles) on Montague between Clinton and Henry and between Henry and Hicks between 10:00 AM and 7:00 PM.
