Canterbury Road in Mountain Brook Village was the setting for the annual Village Garden Walk and Block Party on a sunny, pleasant Friday afternoon, Oct. 6.
The street was closed to traffic for the event, now in its third year.
Attendees could stroll between retail shops, meet and chat with friends, enjoy live music — an energetic young punk-pop band from Mason Music — or eat barbecue from the Full Moon truck.
And the storefronts were decorated in floral designs for the entire weekend as a salute to another event nearby at Birmingham Botanical Gardens.
“I love seeing the food trucks, seeing family and friends enjoying the outdoors and just having a fun night,” Patel said.
Mountain Brook Village also has its annual open house scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 30, from 5-8 p.m., according to the Mountain Brook Chamber of Commerce.
