Spenard Second Saturday!
Anchorage
Every second Saturday is your special day to be in Spenard! Friendly local merchants up and down Historic Spenard Road are doing something special to make your walk through the district a fun adventure. S2S is more of a movement than just an event.

Spenard 2 Saturday is about community engagement; it’s an opportunity for each business/organization to promote their events each month using the hashtag #spenard2ndsaturday and adding their event to the Google Event Map. Quarterly, participating businesses go ALL OUT and bring focus to a specific nonprofit that is working to improve our neighborhood.
