Manhattan Chamber of Commerce Street Fair on Third Avenue


It's street fair and festival season again in New York. Each weekend, numerous street fairs take place in different parts of the city giving New Yorkers and tourists an opportunity to sample food, shop for clothes, accessories, plants and other items, enjoy chair massages and live entertainment. These photos were taken from yesterday's Manhattan Chamber of Commerce community benefit street fair on Third Avenue from 66th to 86th Streets. The purpose of these popular street fairs is to support a wide-range of community programs in Community Board District 8. Each year, event proceeds are used to support a wide range of community-based non-profit projects. The schedule for street fairs for June can be found in this website.
