Third Thursday returns in June

Downtown Milford Inc. (DMI) recently announced that Third Thursday will return starting June 15. The theme for the first event is Downtown Superheroes.

“Bring your mask and cape,” Janne Collins, Executive Director for DMI said. “As a business in our downtown district, you are welcome to have a spot on Walnut Street or Park Avenue during the event at no cost If you would like to do something special during the event that goes with the theme, let me know and we will promote it. Some examples are superhero training, a game or a special giveaway. If you are choosing to do your own thing off site, that’s cool, too! Just let us know so we can steer folks your way.

Third Thursday runs from 4:30 PM to 8:00 PM on the third Thursday of summer months. The theme for July 20 is Fire & Ice with Cascading Carlos the fire juggler. On August 17, the theme is Dancing in the Streets.

“This is always a fun event with food trucks and music,” Collins said. “It is a great way to see what downtown Milford has to offer as our boutiques are open late that night. You can learn more about the many businesses downtown as well as more about volunteer opportunities, not only with DMI but other non-profits as well.
