May Happenings

May is looking to be a busy month for Finally Friday, and we’re excitedly looking forward to all that’s going on.

We start off performing at the South Natick Art in the Park on Sunday May 6 from 11 AM to 1 PM in Shaw Park across from the Charles River dam on Rte. 16.  The art fair will be held on the first Sunday of every month through October.  In addition to us playing, there will be wonderful visual art, fresh flowers, artisanal food items, and antiques. The event will happen rain or shine. It’s a great activity for your friends and families.

Then, on Saturday May 12, we return on opening day for our third year playing at the Natick Farmers’ Market, located at the Natick Common at Rtes. 27 & 135.  We play from around 10 AM to 12:30 PM.  The market features fresh fish, organic meats, fruits, vegetables, baked goods, including gluten free, cheese, coffee, tea and a variety of products such as dips, marinades, sauces, granola, pasta and chocolates. The market supports local farmers and emerging food businesses in order to promote healthy eating.

And on Wednesday night, May 30, we’ll be the evening’s entertainment at Stone Hearth Pizza Restaurant in Needham Center at 974 Great Plain Avenue, opposite Town Hall Park. (www.stonehearthpizza.com)  It’s our first time participating in their regular Wednesday night music series, and we’re very excited to be invited!  They have great pizzas, salads, sandwiches, and a nice selection of wines and craft beers.  (They even have gluten-free pizza.)  We’ll be playing from 7 PM to 9 PM.
