When the warm weather returns it is time to get outside and mingle! The Graham Avenue BID has ways of encouraging you to do this.

Cook Street Commons launched in summer of 2023. On the first and last Saturdays in May (May 3 and May 31) and the second and last Saturdays in June (June 14 and June 28) from noon to 5 p.m. a small open street is created where Cook Street halts east of Graham Avenue.  There are café tables and chairs, DJs, and other activities provided to help folks recharge so they can take advantage of the retail and other businesses on Graham Avenue.

Annual Graham Avenue Fiesta — May 17 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. will be filled with fun, food, entertainment, and more from Boerum Street to Broadway.  This year there will be circus acts to add more wow factor. Of course the Fiesta is a great opportunity to shop one of the classic shopping districts in Williamsburg.  Shopping local is a beautiful thing to do for your community.
