. .: Some advice: Wear Comfortable Shoes

Friday April 23rd, 2010 from 6pm-12am is going to be EPIC on Fillmore St. After weeks of hard work we will finally present the 1st, Fillmore Art Walk! You are invited to experience an evening full of Art, Fashion, Music, discounted Food and Libations!

   One of my favorite things to do in this city is attend Art Shows and Live Performances. It really is a nice break from the usual "city nightlife." With summer just around the corner we want to get people in the mood to celebrate San Francisco's rich culture, and we are highlighting The Fillmore District! with local emerging artists, and great specials at participating restaurants!
      There will be so many events approaching the neighborhood and we are kicking it off with this celebration!
    If you have been to the art walks of Mission, Divisadero, and Haight St., you will definitely understand why I felt so inspired to create this event.
   It certainly was not an easy process. I hard a hard time convincing people that I could pull this off, but once I joined forces with Melonie and Melorra Green, my dream of bringing an Art Walk to Fillmore became a reality.
   Melonie and Melorra are no strangers to the Fillmore District. For years they have been bringing art to the community with events like Idependant Artist Week and other exhibitions. I truly could not have done this without them!
