BUCHANAN – Downtown Buchanan will be alive with activity Friday evening during the eighth annual An Evening In Buchanan.
The public is invited to the affair that will include an antique auto show and the monthly Second Fridays Cruise-In, music from the ‘50s with DJ Randy Riddle, the barbershop quartet Four For You strolling the downtown, a farmer’s market, food booths, carriage rides, tethered hot air balloon rides, caricature artist Jed Mickel and shopping and dinning at the downtown merchants and restaurants—one is an authentic 1950s soda fountain and grill, another is an 1800s antebellum home to a famous Commodore in the Confederate Navy.
