Once again, thousands of people filled the stretch of pavement between Dickson Street and the Fayetteville square to enjoy the third annual Block Street Block Party on Sunday, May 19.

The festival featured over 50 performances by local bands, poets, DJ’s, songwriters, theatre groups, as well as tons of vendor booths featuring local art, crafts, food and more.

Judging by all the smiles we saw on the faces of those in attendance, we’d say the event was a smashing success.

Here are some of the photos that we grabbed during the party on Sunday. Kudos to the organizers on another great event.
