I originally reported that the Lower Haight Block Party was to take place tomorrow (from info I got from Supervisor Mirkarimi’s newsletter), and was just informed that it’s actually NEXT weekend.

Here are the current details:

Lower Haight Block Party – Celebrate the Lower Haight!

The Lower Haight Merchants Association is hosting its first neighborhood
Block Party on Sunday October 22, 2006 from 11am to 6pm on Haight Street between Filmore and Pierce and Steiner between Laussat and Page.

The Block Party will feature live music, special events for families and children, and reasonably-priced booth spaces to accommodate local and emerging artists. The event will not include alcohol booths, and food booths are available only to the existing restaurants within the confines of the event.

The Lower Haight Merchants Association is a neighborhood organization whose purpose is to develop and maintain a thriving business environment within our membership area. We seek to provide a safe, clean and supportive atmosphere where businesses can thrive, working closely with city and state government agencies, community-based organizations and neighborhood residents.
