4th ANNUAL HOW WEIRD STREET FAIRE PLANNED FOR EASTER SUNDAY
2003 Faire Takes Over the SOMA District With More Entertainers, Speakers, and
Vendors, Promoting Expanded Consciousness, Peace, and Weirdness!
San Francisco, California -- Howard Street becomes "How Weird Street"
as the 4th Annual How Weird Street Faire takes place on Easter Sunday, April
20th, 2003, along four City streets, from the intersection of Howard and 12th
Streets through San Francisco's SOMA district. The good times begin at 12:00
PM and last until 8:00 PM, with a sliding scale donation requested at the gates
(recommended $2 with costume; $5 without). This annual community gathering of
musicians, artisans, vendors, dancers, and anyone with an appreciation of unique
self-expression has become one of the most anticipated street fairs in San Francisco.
Inviting the participants to become the performers, the faire celebrates the
Bay Area community's creative vibrancy and eccentric personalities. The faire
encourages participants to share in the experience of an engaging, exciting
street dance party that features dancing, performance, shopping, and creative
self-expression in an environment where "weirdness" is not merely
accepted, it's expected! In our ever-expanding universe, it is a humble yet
primary goal of the How Weird Street Faire to promote harmony by expanding our
collective consciousness, for as we unite in celebration, we dissolve barriers
to love and allow peace to grow.
This year's How Weird Street Faire will have four music stages featuring live
acts and world-class DJs playing psychedelic trance, funky break-beat and more.
Selected community leaders and social activists begin speaking at 4:00 PM, and
at 4:20 PM a "Unity Track" will be played across all four sound systems.
Additionally, there will be a dazzling display of performance artists, including
a marching band, belly dancers, circus acts, wandering musicians, and elaborately
costumed stilt walkers. The Bizarre Bazaar will provide an international collection
of conscious art and high-spirited vendors, and a Children's Play Area will
keep the little ones entertained all day long. Come out on 4/20 and be a part
of the weirdness. For more information or to get involved please visit our website
