Join us on June 9 to celebrate, City Heights-style! The third annual City Heights Street Food Fest will be a family-friendly evening of live art, music, drinks, games, and street food as diverse as City Heights. All registration/ticketing proceeds will be used to provide job assistance, food, housing, safer streets, and other critical support to the City Heights community. Street food from many cultures around the world will be available for purchase, and your purchase supports sidewalk vendors as they battle unjust legislation that, until recently, made it virtually impossible to be a legally-recognized business. We can’t wait to celebrate and support these food vendors! **Kids are free!** This is a fundraising event so, unfortunately, refunds will not be provided. Thanks for understanding and supporting our mission!
