Streetwear style and SD soccer culture combine at the Saturdays Football pop-up at Ballast Point Brewing in Little Italy from Thursday, September 10 through Sunday, September 13! With storefronts in LA and NYC and pop-ups across the US, Saturdays has built a cult following among diehard soccer fans and streetwear fashion enthusiasts for their vintage jerseys and timeless soccer kits spanning from old-school club icons to modern-day masterpieces. The pop up at Ballast Point will feature vintage jerseys, Saturdays apparel and special collaborative pieces, including Ballast Point hats hand-finished with Saturdays patches and branding, created live during the pop-up. Ballast Point has long served as a gathering place for San Diego's soccer community, rooting for local clubs and teams like the San Diego Wave FC and SDFC.

Zero Waste San Diego is hosting an SD Fixit Clinic at the Valley Center Branch Library. Bring your broken, non-functioning things: electronics, appliances, computers, toys, bicycles, clothes, etc. for assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. We’ll provide work-space, specialty tools, and guidance to help you disassemble and troubleshoot your item and it’s all free, though we welcome donations to keep the movement growing! Whether we fix it or not, you’ll learn more about how it was manufactured and how it worked while trusting it won’t end up in a landfill. Please Note: We do not operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Pre-registered guests receive priority, and repairs are matched to the appropriate fixer. Wait times may vary. Thank you for your patience. Interested in volunteering with SD Fix-it? Click on this link to fill out an application: https://sdfixitclinic.org/volunteer/
