The Darien Chamber of Commerce will hold its Sidewalk Sales on Thursday through Saturday, July 14 to 16, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The annual event will take place rain or shine.
— an announcement from the Darien Chamber of Commerce
New this year, the Chamber is setting up an area for teenagers to sell their homemade goods and products. The youth entrepreneurial tent will be located in between Caffè Nero & Bankwell. The teenagers will participate Saturday only, July 16, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
“We are excited for the kids to interact with the community and experience selling and shopping locally, said Kesti Aysseh, executive director of the Darien Chamber. Shoppers of all ages will find bargains under the tents and inside shops along the Post Road.
