The event is free, open to the public and handicapped accessible. Handicapped parking is available at the municipal lot on Corry Street, and the PTO of Mills Lawn School will collect a fee for parking space on the school grounds. Do not bring pets to Street Fair as the crowded conditions make it unsafe and uncomfortable.
