Food items from the restaurants will be available as will several craft beers.

There will be a kids zone with a lot of fun activities.

Olivia Amos, a partner at Bare Roots Farmacy, said in a news release, “We’re eager to attract people to Uptown to see our new space. This block of 12th Street has really come alive in the past few years and we want the community to experience its energy. With the holidays fast approaching, we wanted to do something to assist Feeding the Valley. They do great things in our community. That’s why we chose to donate a portion of our proceeds to them.”

People are invited to bring chairs but no coolers.
