Flourish Magazine, the quarterly women's publication produced by Rust Communications, will host an event this weekend you will want to attend.
The Flourish Downtown Day Out will be held from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday. There will be food trucks, live music, poetry readings, a vendor market and interactive events. Unlike the magazine's previous events geared toward a female audience, this one is for the entire family.
Many of the events are being hosted at Peace Park, which is the park at the corner of Broadway and Spanish Street next to First Presbyterian Church. Food trucks and evening live music are behind the Southeast Missourian building at 301 Broadway.

10 a.m. to 2 p.m.: Pottery demonstration with the SEMO Clay Club
10 a.m. to 11 a.m.: Vinyl + Vinyasa with Yoga East
10 a.m. to noon: Live Music by Sam + Jess
