Each September, the Abell Improvement Association hosts the lively Abell Community Street Fair — a celebration of Baltimore’s neighborhood spirit and one of the city’s most beloved community traditions. Set against the colorful backdrop of Abell’s famously bright rowhouses, the fair transforms the streets into a festival full of energy, flavor, and creativity. Visitors can enjoy live music on two stages, savor local food and drinks, shop from dozens of artists and vendors, and take part in Baltimore’s best silent auction. Whether you’re a longtime local or discovering Abell for the first time, the Street Fair is the perfect way to experience what makes this corner of Charm City so unique: a welcoming community, vibrant culture, and plenty of reasons to stick around and celebrate.
