Sunday Streets Mission + Press Conference

On August 25, 2024, Sunday Streets Mission will open 1+ mile of Valencia St., located within the American Indian Cultural District (AICD), for an afternoon of car-free fun for the whole family. In partnership with AICD and the American Indian Cultural Center (AICC), Sunday Streets Mission celebrates the city’s economic recovery and investment in San Francisco’s diverse communities, in particular American Indian legacy, culture, and people.

Taking place on Valencia Street between Duboce Ave and 26th Street from 11am to 4pm, neighbors and visitors alike can enjoy free recreation, health resources, music, dance, and more! As one of the most visited Sunday Streets SF events of all time, Sunday Streets Mission also welcomes attendees to visit art activations from the citywide Indigenize Project, learn about the unceded Ramaytush Ohlone land where this event is located, and participate in AICC’s marketplace, resource center, and performance stage.

The Sunday Streets SF program is supported by City agencies, including the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department as presenting agency sponsor for the event, bringing free swimming at Mission Pool from 12:00 – 3:00pm.

“Sunday Streets is a perfect example of how we can reimagine our streets as open spaces for people to come together, have fun, and live healthier lives,” said San Francisco Rec and Parks General Manager Phil Ginsburg. “We’re proud to support this event that celebrates the joy of being outside along with our city’s rich cultural heritage.”
