The above photo was taken earlier this summer in Upper Fells Point.

This weekend’s event, scheduled from 3 p.m.-9 p.m. at the stable location at 1102 N. Fremont St., will include a performance by a local marching band, food, drinks, bouncy castles, pony rides, and music.

Also on display: new murals by street artists LNY, Mata Ruda, Nanook, Nether, Sorta, and Gaia, as well as a show of photography and other works inspired by the stables. A Kickstarter fundraising effort this year succeeded in generating nearly $6,000 for the project.

Arabbers, once flourishing on the East Coast, have been around since the 19th Century in Baltimore — the last city where they are said to remain working.
