Local artisans and food vendors will congregate on May 17, 2014 for the first neighborhood fair, called “the ‘burb,” hosted by the CANswer project, a New Jersey based foundation dedicated to finding answers to prevent cancer.
The all-day event will feature over 40 local vendors, including restaurants, boutiques, and salons from the local communities. Live music will also be playing throughout the event, as well as free kid’s entertainment, bounce houses, and more. There will be a 21+ section open till 10 p.m. The CANswer project has a goal of 5,000 participants to raise $50,000, which will be distributed to its three beneficiaries, dedicated to cancer prevention research.
Tickets are $8 for adults and $2 for children and seniors. Discounted adult tickets are available for $5 if attendees show that they “liked” the CANswer project on Facebook and checked-in to the event. The first 500 attendees will receive an amazing tote bag giveaway.
