The University District's iconic street fair will continue its reputation as the longest-running event of its kind in the nation by filling the Ave with food from vendors (like Ziegler’s Bratwurst Haus and Little Funnel Cakes), shopping from local makers (like Steampunkjunq, Slip Ceramica, and Apple Cox Design), crafts, a beer garden, and live music for the 50th year. This year’s jazz- and Americana-inclined performers include the How Short Jazz Band, Great American Trainwreck (Sat), Left Turn on Blue, and Sam Cobra (Sun).
