Milwaukee's Garden District is rolling out the welcome mat for families looking for some autumnal entertainment this weekend.

The weekend continues with the annual Garden District fall rummage sale, promising a diverse range of vendors and merchandise. Starting at an eager 9 a.m. on Saturday, and poised to pack it up by 3 p.m., this open-air market is a treasure trove with goods ranging from the quaint to the quirky. The rummage sale will unfold at 6 th and Norwich, a leisurely block's stroll south of Howard Ave. In describing the community offerings, Alderman Spiker, neighboring residents invited everyone, said, "The 13th District is home to a wide array of offerings for people of all ages and interests, including events like the family movie night and rummage sale happening this weekend."
