  • Statuto, the oldest foot race in San Francisco, attended by 230 runners and 300 family members.

  • Festa Coloniale Italiana a day of Italian food, culture, family, and concerts, enjoyed by over 1,000 neighbors. Brought countless customers to the neighborhood.

  • Painted North Beach the tricolore. Painted the crosswalks at Union and Stockton streets green, white and red and painted poles. Annual lighting of St. Peter & Paul Church during October Italian Heritage Month. Installed a Benvenuti a North Beach, Little Italy" sign welcoming all to the neighborhood.

  • Inaugural Pizza, Bagel & Beer Festival: 15 pizzerias led by Tony’s Pizza, bring positive attention to the community, and selling out at 1,500 attendees. From idea to fruition in just 21 months!
