Downtown Jasper Alive After 5!

The Heart of Jasper invites the community to celebrate the start of a new school year during Alive After 5!, a monthly event bringing music, local vendors, shopping, and community connection to the Square in Downtown Jasper. 

Held on the first Friday from May through December, Alive After 5! takes place from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, offering the perfect way to kick off your weekend while supporting local businesses. During Alive After 5!, merchants on the Square will remain open later, giving the community extra time to explore downtown shops, restaurants, and boutiques. 

Our August 7th event will give families, students, and community members a fun way to enjoy downtown before the new school year begins. The evening will feature free live music from Nikita & Crandall, local vendors, shopping, dining, and a lively atmosphere that highlights the best of Jasper’s downtown community.
