Cealle Creative wrapped up the summer in style as a first-time vendor at Montclair's Jazz House Kids Festival, led by legendary Jazz singer Melissa Walker. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect—clear blue skies with a gentle breeze. The streets were packed with food trucks and creatives, attracting a vibrant and diverse crowd, from spectators to vendors, as the creativity and culture of Montclair spanned block after block. Families, kids, and even dogs filled the streets, all seemingly moving to the same rhythm—the gentle beat of summer winding down.

One of the most special parts of the day was hearing the sounds of live jazz bands playing in the distance, creating a melodic backdrop while I connected with both new and returning clients. The music blended beautifully with the energy of the crowd, making the day feel even more magical.

I’m definitely planning to return to explore more of Montclair's charming eateries and speciality shops! This experience was the perfect way to close out the season and embrace the unique beauty of this vibrant community.
