If you’re visiting downtown to check out the Art Fair or the amazing restaurants, parking is available at the Catherine & Glen lot. The Ann Arbor Art Fair Transportation Web Page has additional parking options and a list of alternative ways to get downtown. Most meter and garage parking is free on Sunday!
