Nihonmachi Street Fair, Inc.

Description

For the Community, Embracing All Communities
The Nihonmachi Street Fair considers itself the original "melting pot" of street fairs, with many aspects of Asian-Pacific American life-and San Francisco’s cultural life-expressed through performance, tradition, art, music, food, and community outreach and service.

Continually evolving to reflect the city it celebrates while staying true to its original idea: to use this event as a platform to mentor Asian-Pacific American youths and foster their leadership and communication skills through volunteerism and community service. The Fair is produced, staffed, and organized by volunteers, thus providing practical, hands-on experience in collaboration, entrepreneurship, and problem solving.
