Stroll through the Historic Overtown Folklife Village, located between 8th and 10th streets on Northwest 2nd and 3rd Avenues. Recent redevelopments have brought a variety of local retailers to the district, specifically those offering unique fares inspired by Harlem Renaissance, West Africa and the Caribbean. The Folklife Village is host to many beloved Overtown events, including Folklife Fridays, an open-air market that takes place the first Friday of every month. Local vendors can be found selling everything from traditional cuisine and handmade jewelry to clothing and books, with the market running from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and including a celebratory Happy Hour.
