The Valencia Corridor Merchants Association is bringing back their annual sidewalk sale this weekend, promising a hot mess of cheap and free booze and food, music, art openings, discounted goods, and associated shenanigans. There's even a “pop-up bar” by everyone love-it-or-hate-it bar Dear Mom.
From Weston Wear's Bridget Moore, who is helping put on the event:
We feel this to be a strong and well-received event, despite certain businesses suffering setbacks from the Valencia Street Riots that took place on April 30th. We are going to show everyone we can take a beating and still throw a party.
Okay! So, everyone go support your local (vandalized) businesses by opening your wallets and getting some rad goods in return. Below, a list of some of Saturday's highlights:
