41st Annual Market Day

October 7, 2017 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

Market Day, the Newtown Historic Association’s 41st annual colonial craft and art fair will be held on Saturday, October 7th At the Half Moon Inn – 105 Centre Avenue (Court Street and Centre Avenue), Newtown. For four decades the Newtown Historic Association has celebrated Market Day. This custom revives an old harvest season tradition in Newtown, where long ago, local farmers brought their crops to town to sell and enjoy a day of festivities and contests that culminated with a horse race down State Street.

Information from 2016’s event is located here. We will update those pages for 2017 as more details become available.
