The Irish American Heritage Center's St. Patrick's Fest Returns.

The festivities follow the downtown parade and are packed with traditional and contemporary Irish music, dance, food and drink for purchase, children's activities-including Wiggleworms performances-a day of Irish Dance Schools in the Mayfair Theatre, and an Arts and Crafts Fair with vendors selling Irish gifts.

Visit the library, art gallery, and museum for programming, exhibits, and a used book sale. It's everything you remember and more.
