Upcoming Community Events for Castro Eureka Valley


June 2, 2012
1:00 - 6:00 Brewtruc Charity Beer Garden
160 Church St. (Blockbuster Video parking lot)
$20 Donation Advance tickets at: http://momagicbeergarden.eventbrite.com/

This event will raise money to support the TAY(Transitional Age Youth) program, which  engenders social responsibility and self-determination through cleaning and greening of parks and public space. Based in the  Western Addition, TAY inspires youth to become environmental ambassadors within their communities. Brewtruc beer gardens feature craft beer from the likes of Stone, Magnolia, Anderson Valley, and Lagunitas. A home-brew hefeweizen throwdown featuring Poplar Brewing, Alliteration Ales, Charles Francisco Brewery, Wild Wind Brewing, Muddypuddle Brewery, and Muffin Street Brewing is shaping up to be quite a battle: come pick your favorite! Food trucks and music to boot.

June 17th 1:00-2:00 Outdoor Concert at Jane Warner Plaza
Sponsored by the Castro CBD, Boogaloo Bahia plays danceable a mashup of funk, soul, Afro-Cuban, samba, jazz, African, and more. It's like James Brown meets Miriam Makeba -- in a salsa club. Come dance, laugh, and sing along as they breathe new life into classic songs (and play original tunes you'll want to hear again and again)!

Just before the concert begins, at 12:45 we will be kicking off the Castro Ambassadors Summer 2012 Season with a blessing by the Sister's of Perpetual Indulgence! Join us and cheer on the Ambassadors!
