FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Carbondale Main Street is proud to announce a new, exciting event! The First Annual Downtown Art and Wine Fair is coming to the Historic Town Square on Friday, May 2, 2008.

Starting at 4 pm, you can sample local area wines, hear jazz and blues, and meet artists from all over the region. We are expecting over thirty artisans, all nine of the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail wineries, and the Carbondale community to join in the fun!

Entry to the tasting area is $5, and wine will also be sold by the glass. Sit down, relax, and tap your toe to Lynn Drury, a jazzy singer straight from New Orleans. If you come later, or stay all night, you’ll hear Ivas John play the blues until 10 pm.

Step into a downtown restaurant for a bite, or stop in and see what the other Town Square businesses have to offer. Come see what makes Downtown Carbondale the place to be! For more information, call the Carbondale Main Street office at 529-8040.

Mark your calendars for May 2! We'll see you downtown!
