Hayes Valley's largest street festival returns to the neighborhood this Sunday for its ten year anniversary. 

The Urban Air Market, a curated market for sustainable design, will take place between 11am-6pm this Sunday, May 4. With over 130 vendors spread out across 4 blocks, this design festival features clothing, jewelry, accessories, art, beauty products, and home decor. 

We spoke to Andrea Plell of Urban Air Market, who shared with us a little more about what to expect this year. "We'll also have a DIY (Do It Yourself) craft station, live music, a flash mob fashion show, live painting and poetry, a shipping station for your gift items, a photo booth in a bus, and your favorite food trucks."

There will also be live musical performances throughout the afternoon, including numbers by Foxtail Brigades, One Man Banjo, Paige & The Thousand, Uni & Her Ukelele, Erin & The Brazillionaires, and Tin Bop Serenade. 

Live art will be a large part of the festival. Expect real-time art paintings by Xavi and DYDART, along with live poetry by the Poetry Store, break dancing by The Urban Dance Project, and a flash mob fashion show by Futa Kashmir

The Urban Air Market takes place mostly in Patricia's Green, with more booths on Linden Alley (between Octavia & Gough) and Octavia Blvd (between Hayes & Grove). 

See you out there on Sunday!
