SOUTH STREET SEAPORT — Live music, seasonal food trucks and a family-friendly ice rink are taking over the cobblestone streets of the South Street Seaport for the next few weekends — along with dozens of artists and artisans.

The Out to See Festival, running weekends through Nov. 23, will feature more than 60 city vendors, including Red Hook’s Tribe Bicycle Co., 3-D printing workshop The Makery and a slate of crafty items from Etsy New York’s teams. The artisans will set up their wares along Fulton and Front streets from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. 

The festival will also feature live music on Front Street. This weekend’s featured band is Brooklyn-based group Relations, which will play from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday.

Art galleries will also host temporary exhibits at John and South streets and at 190 Front St. from noon to 6 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays during the festival, and food trucks will line Fulton Street to offer quick bites.

Starting Nov. 15, residents and visitors will also be able to skate at the Seaport's ice rink. The rink, which is slated to be open seven days a week through Feb. 23, costs $10 for general admission, plus $6 for skate rentals.
