Look forward to:

* Live Music: Enjoy performances by local artists at select locations.
* Local Art: Discover works from talented artists from Northeast Florida displayed in several storefronts.
* Culinary Delights: Savor a variety of food and beverage options from participating eateries and pop-up vendors.
* Shopping Specials: Take advantage of exclusive deals and shop new arrivals at Uptown boutiques and shops.
* Play Games: Participate in the Uptown picture block hunt to win fun prizes and discounts from select local businesses. And … look for cornhole, sidewalk chalk, hulahoops, and other fun activities along San Marco Avenue.
