PASEO ARTISTICO: “Cultura Ambulante”

CELEBRATING STREET VENDORS AND CULTURAL EXCHANGE IN THE MISSION

This June Acción Latina and Paseo Artistico, the Mission District’s only free, bilingual, interactive, art walk down 24th St. honors street vendors as culture bearers whose presence and participation in the neighborhood has roots in Native and Latin American moveable markets and helps sustain economic activity for hundreds of local and international families. *Events include performance by Colombian dance group Chekumbe at La Placita vendor market, and Encuentritos live concert at Accion Latina.
