Maxwell Street Market moved in 2008 for the third time in its history. Bruce Kraig will provide the market’s history. Rob Garner will talk about Maxwell Street today. Together they will comment on the Mexican offerings as we walk about and eat our way through the market. Bring some money for food; ten dollars will easily cover food costs for one. We will be walking with few places to sit. Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes
