Tuesday is the farmers market at Piazza Park. The weekend is Gene Coulon if you want the lake. Two Tuesday markets remain after this one.

Tuesdays, June through September, 3:00–7:00 p.m. The season chart lists Sep 15, Sep 22, and Sep 29, and marks Sep 29 as closing day. Entertainment is posted as 4:00–6:00 p.m. The Sep 15 act was still TBA on the season page. The weekly pattern is a Kid’s Patch, Master Gardeners, and food from the vendors.

The Renton Reporter’s Sep 17 roundup puts the same market at South 3rd Street and Logan Avenue South. That is the Piazza, not a second location. Ten-hour free parking is in the city garage. Enter on 2nd Street. The transit center is one block west.

No ticketed program is posted at the beach this week. The path, the playground, and the picnic lawn are the plan. The swim area follows the city’s season rules. Check the park page before you count on the water in late September.

Renton parks

The downtown library, 100 Mill Ave S, sits over the Cedar River, a short walk from Piazza if you are early for the market. The branch’s current kids’ listings start later in the month: Pokémon Club on Sep 27, and storytimes on Sep 28. Nothing in this Monday–Sunday span was on that list.
