On Saturday downtown, buskers will perform for tips from the Conrad Dyar Memorial Fountain at First and Laurel streets to Railroad Avenue.
Business in the Making — a free, guided behind-the-scenes tour of five businesses that produce the products they sell — will leave from the City Pier bell at noon.
On the tour is Yong Jin Asian Bakery, Udjat Beads, Peak’s Brew Pub, Cabled Fiber Studio and Cock-a-doodle Doughnuts.
