Mt. Airy residents came together on Sunday for the 7th Annual Mt. Airy Village Fair. The event, held on the corner of Carpenter Lane and Greene Street, featured live performances, a pie-eating contest and a pet contest.
Quintessance Theatre Company was on hand to offer up their costumes for children and adults to play dress-up in. The annual event aims to “celebrate the character and warmth of a unique and very creative corner of Philadelphia.”
