FREE (donations accepted)

The 11th Annual "In The Street" Festival will take place in San Francisco's Tenderloin District on Cohen Alley (the 500 block of Ellis Street, between Hyde and Leavenworth), at Luggage Store Annex at 509 Ellis Street, and The Tenderloin Children's Center Playground on the evening of Friday, October 7 and during the day on Saturday,
October 8. Presented by the non-profit The Luggage Store (which does NOT sell luggage), the FREE "In The Street" (ITS) Festival features over 40 performances and installations by more than 100 artists.

ITS, San Francisco's most innovative street theater festival, presents a wide range of experimental and traditional performances and uses all forms of the street, the sidewalks, rooftops, sides of buildings, etc in its presentations and encourages audience participation. This year
features a cross-disciplinary gamut of performers, artists and musicians including dance (belly, butoh, lindy, and hip hop), capoeira, visual arts, circus performance, women's skateboarding, burlesque, puppetry, fire arts, fire sculpture, spoken word, and aerial performance art.

The "In The Street Festival" is 100% non-commercial: the admission is free, and the festival is vendorless. This year's festival is dedicated to world peace and to the memory of Tess Manalo-Ventresca, Tenderloin activist and
advocate, who passed away this summer.
