Rain Cancels JP World's Fair

This year's Jamaica Plain World's Fair, a street party that traditionally stretches down Centre Street from Hyde Square to Jackson Square, has been canceled, according to the fair's Web site. No make up day has been announced, so we're free to assume that, for the second consecutive year, there will be no festival. The JP World's Fair had to keep its tents in the garage last year because of a lack of funding. What a downer.
