In 2004, Fairmount businesses agreed to open their spaces on the last Sunday in April as a neighborhood-wide celebration of spring and exhibition of wares. The idea became a small tradition and is now a serious organized happening – The Fairmount Arts Crawl.

From 2-6pm on Sunday the 26th, about forty rooms open their doors for the Crawl’s fifth afternoon. Never seen the sun set at Bridgid’s or Era Bar? Never spoken in ancient tongues with La Chouffe at the Belgian Cafe? Never had an extremely well-dressed guy try to steal your date as you walk past Jack’s Firehouse on your way to salvage your brain at Little Pete’s?

For one night, you can combine all of these classic Fairmount nightlife opportunities with the goodwill of the neighborhood, performers and jugglers(?!) in the parks, and the work of something like fifty local artists up on all of the walls.

Complete event and artist listings are on the Arts Crawl website. If you don’t feel like setting an agenda, showing up near 20th and Fairmount and slowly heading west will be a sure shot for a fine afternoon.
