🎪Get ready for a day of fun, community, and fundraising at the 74th Annual COMO Village Fair returning on Saturday, August 1 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Wadawanuck Square, 22 High Street in Stonington. This cherished event, a cornerstone of Stonington Borough's summer calendar, brings together families, friends, residents, and visitors for a delightful day out. Brimming with activities for all ages, the fair will include classic children’s games and prizes, a vibrant Artisan Row showcasing the talents of over 60 local artists and vendors, live musical performances, and delicious eats from popular food trucks like Captain Scott’s Lobster Dock and Taqueria Cinco, along with sweets from Chet’s Italian Ice.
📖There will be plenty to explore with the Annual Book Sale, a partnership with the Stonington Free Library, floral arrangements from the Stonington Garden Club, and loaves of Portuguese sweet bread, a local favorite. Art enthusiasts will have the opportunity to peruse and purchase handcrafted pottery from the COMO Pottery Studio. This year's commemorative poster, illustrated by talented local artist Susan Scala, captures the spirit of Stonington featuring the Lighthouse Museum. Posters and sweet bread can be preordered online at thecomo.org/village-fair.
