Pulaski, invites you and your family and friends to 2nd Friday on
the Square in Mt Pulaski on Friday, June 14 from 5 pm until 10 pm

The vendor market, including handmade crafts, antiques, direct
sales, food, and more, opens at 5 pm. In addition, local businesses,
including our restaurants and bars, will be open for business as
