Wellesley Square will be the site of July Jubilation Lite on Saturday, July 17, 10am-4pm (the rain date is July 24th).
Although this year’s July Jubilation Lite will be a scaled-down event as compared with previous years, now more than ever the focus will be on community merchants, who will be on hand to welcome shoppers back to the Square.
July Jubilation Lite will feature live music, a DJ, and merchant displays and their specials.
The Ballunatic will be creating balloon sculptures and be available for photos in front of the Temporary Main Library at 50 Central Street, 11am-1pm. Stop by for a visit, and pick up some library swag. The Ballunatic is sponsored by the Friends of the Wellesley Free Library.
There will be free parking in Wellesley Square during the event. Look for specifically designated free parking areas. Please note: Parking fees will be enforced in all non-designated locations.
Musical guests
Central Street will be closed from Abbott Street to CVS (65 Central Street) so that the featured musicians can rock on:
11am: Mike Kim, solo acoustic
noon–1:30pm: Shira Doron and Off Label
1:30pm–2:30pm: Christine Lucas and Patrick Hayden
2:30pm: Shira Doron and Patrick Hayden
