Old Beach Art & Eco Market June 11, 2022

Old Beach Art Market AND Old Beach Green Market
June is busting out all over
and ViBe Park
is a great place to be.
Near ViBe Park is good, too.
g
Old Beach Art & Eco Market is expanding onto Cypress Avenue.
Thanks to our wonderful customers, artists and vendors, we’ve outgrown the fence.
g
Cypress Avenue will be closed to vehicular traffic on Saturday mornings so the back and forth between Art & Eco and Farmer’s will be easier and safer!
g
We’re so excited!
So, where can I park?
Street parking on 18th and 19th Streets
City lot on 18th
(west of the ViBe Park and Wareing’s Gym parking)
VB Convention Center
Runnymede lots on Cypress between 19th and 21st
Please note the private parking areas:

Labor Day Virginia Beach

It’s Labor Day – the unofficial end of summer: 
When the tourists go home and VB life gets back to normal.

Well, as normal as possible nowadays.
Even though we turn our thoughts to autumn activities – like getting back to school –

there are many good summer beach days left.

The U.S. has been celebrating Labor Day
for over 125 years

and

We honor everyone who keeps us going,
day in and day out, by working.

Whether it’s 9 to 5 or the graveyard shift,
we’ll all important. Reflect on that.

It’s our last
this weekend…
After 20 great runs, the half marathon is moving on.
We’re all cheering for the runners as they cross this finish line for the last time but watch out for some road closures on Saturday morning:
Atlantic Avenue
from 31st St to 39th St – from 5:00 a.m. until about 9:30 a.m.
from 22nd St to 31st St – from 6:30 a.m. until about 9:15 a.m.
from 7th St to 22nd St – from 6:30 a.m. until about 8:30 a.m.
(and more on Sunday – check the website)
And we’ll see you Saturday morning
in ViBe Park
The best of Old Beach Art & Eco Market
will be waiting for you!
Join these fabulous artists
