Some of the local streets will be closed to traffic by that time so it would be advisable to check Nixle alerts and plan accordingly. If the DeHart parking lot is full, the only option would be local streets that remain open. Even then, parking may not be permitted on streets where there are performances scheduled. Have you tried looking at the Porch Fest website or contacting the organizers?
Park on the other side of Springfield Avenue. It’s a hassle driving around the Hilton section on porch fest day.
She would have to be at dehart very early to get a parking spot.

I have a friend coming for the event. If she gets to Maplewood by 11:45, is there likely to be parking at DeHart?
If not, where should she look?
