Fall for Downtown Hampton

When you think of fall, do you think pumpkins, cooking with apples, and nutmeg, or maybe just enjoying the great outdoors and the beauty of changing leaves? Many people consider fall their favorite time of the year. After all, it's a great season to celebrate.

Every Saturday, October 1, 8, 15 & 22, you can revel in the season of mums, crafts and cool breezes 9am-1pm at the Downtown Hampton Market Place. The Fall Market on Queens Way presents a bounty of fresh produce, live entertainment, cooking demonstrations, and gardening instruction. There's local art, specialty items, children's activities, and more.

October 1, enjoy live entertainment by Raymond & Kasey Meeks, the work of artist John Butler, and learn all about Butterflies from the Hampton Master Gardeners.

Market Place goes to the dogs October 8, so bring your pet pooch! Lots of canine friendly vendors and activities, live entertainment by Harold Glynn, a seminar on trees from the Hampton Master Gardeners, and the artistry of Claudia Cronenberger.

The apples, pumpkins, mums and squash will be plentiful October 15, as Wildfire takes the stage and the work of a Blue Skies Gallery artist is showcased.

Jacks are back October 22 with the Downtown Hampton Pumpkin Carving Contest. Enjoy live entertainment by River Gypsies, the featured art of Milyn King and fantastic door prizes. It's sure to be smashing!
