Head to Towaco Music & Arts Festival this Saturday

The Towaco Civic Association is ready for its 13th annual Towaco Music, Arts and Crafts Festival this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Towaco Train Station at 630 Rt 202.  

Saturday's forecast is looking a little bit shaky. Weather.com says that there will be isolated thunderstorms with a high of 76 and a low of 59. However, the chance of precipitation is only 30 percent so keep your fingers crossed.
It's at the Towaco train station from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.

The rain date is Sunday, same time and place. 

"This year's event features artist and crafters with handmade pottery, jewelry, paintings, artwork, crocheted baby items, Fall flower arrangements and more. Have your portrait sketched, or treat yourself to some of the gourmet foods, organic soaps and lotions," according to a release from TCA President Kim Bott.

Kid-friendly activities include:

• face painting

There will also be plenty of food: sausage & peppers, crepes, smoothies, pizza, cheese steak, zeppoles, ice cream, candy popcorn, honey and baked goods.
