Downtown Silver Spring: Ellsworth Drive

Silver Spring, Maryland

This popular commercial district celebrates “celebra” the month of Hispanic Heritage. With a large Latino population in Silver Spring and larger representation in Montgomery County as well as a part of the diverse consumer footprint of this  corridor, the fiesta starts here. Not unlike most Latino Festivals, the event will offer some of the best in Latin American food, music, dance and culture. What distinguishes this event from others will be the diversity in Latino countries represented through samplings of the twenty-one Latin American countries of the world in fine cuisine, art and culture. The event is free to the public including music, entertainment and activities.

Applications will be up in late spring.

Presents:

34th Adam’s Morgan Day Festival

Art on Belmont

Sunday September 9th, 2012

Belmont Street is a tree lined shaded street that hosts 45 fine art and craft exhibitors. This is a juried section of the festival and draws a large and devoted crowd. Over 35,000 people visited last year, and we are constantly growing.

Art on Belmont is open 10am-7pm which is two hours earlier than the 18th Street section. This allows for early shoppers and extra time to prepare for the huge crowds.

We limit the amount of exhibitors for each medium and also try and create a diverse mix within a certain medium. Many exhibitors return every year to Belmont, but there are always many new artists who add to the great mix.

Applications Will Be Up In The Spring.
