Shaking off
the blues of a typical New England winter, Boston comes alive in
late spring and summer with an explosion of street fairs and festivals
that reflect its cultural diversity.
On a given weekend
during warmer weather, Bostonians and visitors may happen upon anything
from a local neighborhood food fest to an all-out extravaganza complete
with music, jugglers, puppet shows, and other live entertainment.
