  • Saturday, September 15, 10:00 am – 5:00 pm – NABB Fall Street Sale

    On Saturday, September 15th, from 10:00am to 5:00pm, The Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay will hold its Annual Fall Street Sale, our local community yard sale, on the Dartmouth Street Mall between Newbury Street and Commonwealth Avenue (at Alley 434).

    You may purchase a 10′ x 4′ selling space at the Street Sale for $75. This fee includes one chair. Bring your own table or rent one with your space reservation for an additional $25. Reservations are not transferable according to state revenue restrictions.

    NABB arranges the space, procures the permits, and sets the stage. You bring your clean and sale ready household merchandise, books, antiques or other treasures, priced appropriately, and watch them be snapped up by bargain hunters. The proceeds are all yours.

    No clothing, please. The City of Boston has notified NABB that no commercial products may be sold at this sale.  For more information, or to procure a table, log on to www.nabbonline.com, or mail a check for $75 (or $100 if you wish to rent a table and chair) made out to NABB to the NABB office at 160 Commonwealth Avenue, #L-8, Boston, MA 02116-2749.

     

  • Rain Cancellation of Garden Club Table at NABB Street Sale

    Once again, heavy rain and a forecast of lightning has scuttled our plans to participate in the Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay’s Street Fair, originally scheduled to take place today, October 3, on the Dartmouth Street Mall between Newbury Street and Commonwealth Avenue.  We haven’t heard whether or not NABB and other vendors are going forward with their plans (we suspect not), but thank our volunteers, especially Committee Chair Maureen O’Hara, for their work preparing for today’s event.

  • Saturday, October 3, 10:00 am – Back Bay Street Sale Rescheduled

    The Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay’s Street Sale, rained out on September 12, has been rescheduled for Saturday, October 3, beginning at 10:00 am, on the Dartmouth Street Mall (Dartmouth Street between Newbury and Commonwealth).  The Garden Club of the Back Bay will be there.  Here is your opportunity to pick up a membership brochure, buy a tote bag or apron, order a holiday wreath or one of our beautiful tree fences, and learn about all the good works we do for the neighborhood and beyond.  We hope to see you there.  For more information on the event, log on to www.nabbonline.com.

  • Garden Club Table at NABB Street Sale Canceled Due to Rain

    The Garden Club hoped to participate today, September 12, in the NABB Street Sale, but the rain is pouring down, and most of our material is paper, so we regretfully will not be on the Dartmouth Street mall today.  Should the entire event be canceled and rescheduled, we’ll let you know.
