A fundraiser and celebration for the World Peace Through Technology Organization (www.peacetour.org)********************Direct from Justin, Marketing Coordinator for the How Weird Street Faire:
Once again, the center intersection of Howard and 12th Streets will be filled with a mandala of grass – an urban crop circle – a place to relax and connect. This year will feature a special new area called "Ambient Alley" on Kissling Street, a place to escape with chill down-tempo music. The rest of the faire will feature seven dance stages powered by bio-diesel, and one sound system completely powered by humans on bikes! This will be the last event on Howard Street.
********************
The How Weird Street Faire got its start on Howard Street because that was home to the CCC,
aka the Consortium for Collective Consciousness, a commune-ish warehouse space filled with the kind of kids who travelled
to Goa, trafficked in various doo-dads and clothes from the developing world, and threw Goa Trance parties (which were
super exclusive, and if you were dressed like a candy raver, you weren't getting in). It's a bit of a shock to learn that the How
Weird Street Faire will no longer be on Howard Street, and raises the question of where it will be located, if anywhere, in 2008.
