FALL BACK FESTIVAL This children’s historical street fair is in the heart of the Gaslamp in front of the William Heath Davis House, span- ning Fourth Avenue between Market Street and J Street and Island Avenue between Fourth and Fifth. Take a stroll down the historical streets and fall back into San Diego’s wild past of the 1880s. Kids can pan for gold with prospectors, observe a blacksmith plying his trade, saddle up for a pony ride, or learn to churn butter and dip their own candle.
They can even find a sheriff and throw their parents in the town jail. Take a time-period portrait complete with traditional Wild West attire and props and visit one of the cultural booths to learn about different nationalities and how they have contributed to the fabric of San Diego society. Free snacks for the kids include quesadillas from Mr. Joey’s Taco Shop, popcorn, and cotton candy. Kids and adults can enter a spa- ghetti-, pie-, or ice cream–eating con- test. Produced by the Gaslamp Quarter Historical Foundation.
WHEN: Sunday, November 6, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. WHERE: Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House, 410 Island Avenue.
