On Saturday, Sept. 21, all are invited to come out and celebrate
"Autumn on the Avenue" … that is, Park Slope’s Fifth
Avenue, between Flatbush Avenue and 14th Street.
The celebration will feature in-store events in the neighborhood’s
boutiques, bars, cafes and galleries during their normal hours
of operation. Eidolon (Fifth Avenue at President Street) will
offer shoppers 10 percent off their wares, which include unique
ladies accessories.
Pick up a copy of the free, recently published merchant map,
featuring 100 of Fifth Avenue’s best, at any store with red balloons
outside. Proceeds from the sale of raffle tickets — with prizes
ranging from dinners, to an Eidolon gift certificate, to gym
memberships — will defray the cost of holiday lights to brighten
the avenue this winter. For raffle box locations, go to www.thecoachinglounge.com/5th.
The drawing is at 4:30 pm at Red White & Bubbly, 211 Fifth
Ave. at Union Street.
