Amherst’s 12th Annual Block Party on September 12, 2025 drew a huge diverse crowd to downtown Amherst. There were 99 vendor tables representing local businesses, town services, and community organizations, and three stages featuring live music, theater, dance, and circus performances. And there was a lot of intriguing food. Below is a gallery of photos from the evening.
