Festivities in historic downtown Doylestown (photos by R. Kennedy)

If mushroom festivals aren’t really your thing, don’t think that your only other option is to stay home next weekend. Instead, consider heading out to Doylestown for their annual arts festival. Currently in its 18th year, this two-day, juried fest offers more than 150 artisans, as well as two stages for live music and plenty of activities for the kids.

The festival runs 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, September 12th and 13th. Admission is free, as it parking at the Courthouse Garage. For the harvest lovers amidst you, make sure to check out the Scarecrow Junction on Sunday at the Pine Street Parking lot. You’ll be able to construct your very own straw Scarecrow (make sure to bring old clothes and props to fully deck out your creation).
