Summer fun continues at Eakins Oval on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The city is bringing back the Oval Minifest for three Saturdays in August.
The family-friendly series kicks off on Aug. 8 with the sixth annual Hip Hop in the Park Festival.
The day will feature performances from hip-hop artists, local DJs, dancers and live street art.
The following week, the Oval will host the Now + Then Marketplace, where visitors can shop local vendors for art, jewelry and resale items. The event will end with a free outdoor screening of the movie “Project Hail Mary.”
On Aug. 22, the series concludes with a Family Fun Day hosted by Kith + Kin. The event will feature soccer-themed activities, lawn games, face painting and live music. The day will wrap up with a free screening of “The Incredibles.”
