“My family
and I have been traveling to Oxford to enjoy the Double Decker Arts Festival
for many years. The town of Oxford is so inviting and seeing everyone on the
square having fun is great,” stated Eliza Garraway, a Jackson native.
Many stores
located on the square have banners in the window supporting the Festival and

for all the shops on the square to get great business. I love to see the square
