Urban Country Fair

Think you have to travel miles from the city to experience the down-home friendliness of a good old-fashioned country-style fest? Think again. Thanks to the Somerville Arts Council and Truth Serum Productions, there's one nearby. The Urban Country Fair captures the spirit of its model by focusing on neighbors sharing knowledge, showing off skills and products, and having fun. Celebrate local ingenuity and enjoy craft displays, Boston Skillshare workshops, vendors including First Root Farm and Whisky… Show more Business (they make vegan treats, no kidding), and music by Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling, the Pretty Pennies, and Comanchero. -- Milva DiDomizio, Globe Staff
