May Fair will take place on Friday evening, May 11 for "Friday Night Lights", and all day on Saturday, May 12.
May Fair is the celebration of the St. Mark's community reaching out to the Town of New Canaan, and other communities, not only on the day of the fair, but all year long through our outreach programs funded by May Fair proceeds. By attending May Fair, the public supports the mission of St. Mark's and its Outreach Commission, and helps to fund generous outreach donations to charitable organizations locally, nationally, and internationally.
Back by popular demand, "Friday Night Lights" on May 11 will serve as a prelude to the main event on Saturday and will hold a special appeal for young adults and kids, offering all of the carnival rides, music, and the famous May Fair barbeque. (Please note that the White Elephant and book sales will not begin until Saturday.)

May Fair will run with its full array of rides, games, entertainment, and White Elephant and book sales on Saturday. The enormous May Fair White Elephant Tag Sale features thousands of items for sale including jewelry, furniture, rugs, china, crystal, art, collectibles, lamps, kitchenware, linens, electronics, toys, games, sporting goods, and lawn furniture. Delicious foods will be available for purchase including grilled chicken, smoked brisket, pulled pork, corn on the cob, hotdogs and hamburgers, pizza, ice cream, and many other treats including May Fair's famous strawberry shortcake. St. Mark's BBQ ministry, "The Holy Smokers", prepare for May Fair long in advance, and stay up for days to smoke the brisket and pulled pork sold at the fair, using their trademark St. Mark's Bell Tower BBQ Sauce.
