Thousands of local residents, families and friends spent Saturday afternoon on MacArthur street - between 35th and 38th avenues - for the 11th Annual Laurel Street Fair.

The event featured music, entertainment, a Health and Wellness Zone, a Kids Zone, food and a diverse mix of vendors and information booths.

The annual event was sponsored by the Laurel District Association - a "property-based Business Improvement District established to revitalize the commercial corridor."
