PARIS, TN - The Downtown Paris Association celebrates the first ever Downtown Paris Week through June 16. Designed to make locals more aware of what many call “the crown jewel” of Paris, these seven days “focus attention on everything that those in the downtown footprint have to offer, and that’s a lot,” said DPA President Kathy Ray.

Four days of fun have already passed, but the weekend is full of activities for the whole family.

Friday, June 15 the merchants highlight their wares with Downtown Paris Week Sidewalk Sales and Father’s Day Specials. Register for in-store prizes with participating merchants.

The fun starts early on Saturday, June 16 when the fruits, vegetables and flowers of the  Henry County Farmers’ Market fill the east side of the square. Vendors will set up at 9:00 am. Shoppers can enjoy Sidewalk Sales, special Father’s Day Sales and still register for special, in-store prizes at participating stores.
