It’s no secret that the Mission is home to some of the best boutiques, restaurants, and coffee shops in the city. And tonight at the first-ever Valencia Evening Fair all of these awesome venues are coming together to celebrate the buzzy strip that they call home. To help you navigate it all, we've whipped together a handy guide on the coolest events that involve everything from one-night-only discounts to live music. Staying open until 10 p.m. or later, many of the shops are really putting their party-planning skills to the test with Shoe Biz’s all-girls themed art show with DJ Jamaica, Benny Gold’s PBR-sponsored soirée, and The Mission Statement’s outdoor festivities. Scope out the list, below, and let the summer stroll begin!
