Preserving a Piece of History

After The Summer of Love and the late 1960’s Counter Culture mantra of “Peace, Love and Happiness” had died off in the wake of a dark economic and social downturn, a group of community citizens organized a festival to reclaim their neighborhood. In 1978 on the corner of Haight and Ashbury, with the guidance and support of Harvey Milk, the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair was born. Thousands of people gathered to support the community, the neighborhood and each other. Shortly after, new retail businesses began to occupy formerly boarded up storefronts, local art projects and murals emerged, along with after school programs for the children and musical presentations.

The Haight-Ashbury Street Fair (HASF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit community ran organization. Continuing the annual festival now for over four decades, the Haight-Ashbury has successfully kept the tradition alive. Along with carrying forward the spirit and essence of the Love Generation’s ideals, HASF also works with the community to promote local artists, musicians and merchants, along with assisting other community-based outreach programs. The HASF has become more than just an annual street fair. Throughout the year there is continued support, events and activities free to the community under the same premise of a fun, safe and free gathering.

The yearly HASF has become one of the most anticipated open-air festivals of the San Francisco Summer Events Season. The street fair has grown to occupy five blocks of Haight Street and includes three stages that provide live music, The Children’s Alley, which is a family friendly area that provides free services and entertainment for our youngest attendees, and a very popular Vending and Exhibition Zone, which includes a local HASF Artwalk section. HASF relies on sponsors like you to keep the tradition alive, and to preserve this important piece of San Francisco history.

Sponsorship Opportunities

HASF offers an amazing opportunity for any company to reach out and develop new audiences, promote products or services, and interact with a large demographic while maintaining a positive public image for supporting an organization that is committed and recognized on a local and state level to the community. The event’s popularity draws public and media interests on local, national and international levels. The Los Angeles Times proclaimed the Annual Haight-Ashbury Street Fair as the top “Summer of Love” event in San Francisco.
