SAVE THE DATE: PS 29 to Participate in Atlantic Antic '08, Sunday October 5th

SAVE THE DATE: PS 29 will have a table with face painting, PS 29 merchandise and more at the 34th Annual Atlantic Antic, on Sunday, October 5th! To volunteer, please contact co-chairs Kathleen Cavalaro and Providence Hogan

Spanning Atlantic Avenue, from Hicks St. to Fourth Avenue, the Antic is a great family-oriented festival, offering plenty of pony rides, face painting, balloon sculptures, live storytelling, music for kids and more! Ten live musical stages offer free performances all day. 

The New York Transit Museum's 15th Annual Bus Festival  also will coincide with the Antic, taking place at the midway point of the festival, on Boerum Place. A collection of vintage buses dating back to 1917 will be on display and ready to board, and visitors can  enjoy free admission to the museum, one block away on Schermerhorn Street.

The Antic features foods from around the world, from baklava and funnel cake, to grilled sardines and pulled pork sandwiches, to street fair favorites like fresh lemonade, fried mozzarella, and roasted corn.  

Atlantic Avenue's restaurants and boutiques along with a host of local vendors, craftspeople, and nonprofits offer fabulous merchandise, too. 

Please come support the PTA and have fun while you're at it!
