Salisbury, MD: April 21, 2023 is the next 3rd Friday in Downtown Salisbury, with artists and crafters lining the streets, live music outside, and tons of special activities.

From seed bomb giveaways to baby animals and pony rides with Funny Farm Petting Zoo, art shows, plant swaps and more!

Springtime wouldn’t be complete without a focus on plants and animals. Funny Farm Petting Zoo will be back this year on Main Street with baby animals and barnyard friends that everyone can enjoy, with pony rides available at an extra charge.

Plant lovers can participate in the Downtown Salisbury Visitor Center’s Houseplant Propagation Swap, where houseplant cuttings can be traded between other local houseplant enthusiasts.

Division Street stage will have lots to enjoy with live music from The Permilla Project from 5 – 8 p.m. The stage will also feature a Trash Fashion Show at 6 p.m. hosted by the Salisbury University Environmental Students Association. Models from the Salisbury School and Salisbury University will showcase beautiful, hand-made garments made completely out of recycled materials to inspire us all to rethink the trash we throw out each day.
