This year's FROLIC theme is "Flatbush United Nation AKA F.U.N.: From Many Places, Many Shining Faces." The Cortelyou Road farmer's market, a chili-cook-off, bake-a-rama, arts & crafts shows, environmental showcase, and Sports Challenge with Martial Arts, Gymnastics and Basketball Tournament will be just some of the attractions showing the diversity back of this stretch of former farmland in Brooklyn.
"We want to celebrate with great local artists and music acts from the heart of Brooklyn, and capture the spirit of the community unity, with participants who've come from all over the world but who've chosen to live work and play here in Flatbush," said Mannix Gordon, FDC's director of economic development, who's organizing the event.
