Eureka was arguably made greater in 2018 on a number of fronts, but none of those changes were quite as celebrated as the addition of the Friday Night Market which brought much-craved community and vibrance to Old Town to end the grueling work week. Congrats to all that made that happen. That worked well.
Well, you might have noticed it’s damn near winter ‘round Humboldt now, so its time to call it a year. Tell you what: we’ll allow you one more Friday Night Market before they pack it in until 2019. That happens tonight with music you know provided by The Undercovers. Also, food. Also, local crafts. (You know how this works at this point.) Last call!
