Join us for Parenting Village's 10th Annual Family Fest on Sunday, July 27th from 2-6 pm at Rothfuss Park, in Penfield, New York. Family Fest is a fun-filled opportunity for parents and children to connect to one another while simultaneously learning about the many wonderful family-related businesses and services that our community has to offer. Family Fest offers Rochester families a day of connection, fun activities, and laughter, while introducing them to local organizations and businesses. Families are able to partake in free activity tables and mini-classes geared towards children and parents, while surrounded by free bounce houses, face painting, a petting zoo, fire trucks, and much more!

Year after year, we bring the world here. Since debuting in 2012, the Fringe has drawn more than 750,000 visitors from all over the world to more than 5,000 diverse performances and events. In fact, Rochester’s not-for-profit Fringe has become one of the largest and most successful fringe festivals in the nation, the largest multidisciplinary performing arts festival in New York State, and one of the region’s most anticipated festivals each year. Venues and acts radiate out into the city in every direction! No matter what your taste in entertainment, you're on the fringe of finding it!
