Come join in celebrating spring and Easter on March 23, 2013 in Lyons.

This is one of the area’s best places to get a jump on craft ideas for the summer.  Nearly fifty Craft and Artists booths mixed with live local talented singers and musicians will keep you fascinated with great new ideas. There will even be breakfast with the Easter Bunny for all the children.

The younger set will also keep their hands busy with their own age appropriate kids crafts and cupcake decorating.  An Easter Egg Hunt will  start at 1 pm (weather permitting) done in age groups 3-5, 6-9, 10+. There are lots of other activities to be checked out!

Lyons is a pretty and historic community of 6,000 located in Wayne County.  It is situated on the Erie Canal.  The photo above shows the Ohmann Theater on Main Street, Lyons.  It was built in 1915 and is one of the oldest operating movie houses in New York.
