The Civic Joy Fund is at it again, kicking off a renewed emphasis on street activations in San Francisco. Beginning with the bustling heart of Chinatown, the vibrant spirit of the community will beat once more as @bechinatown , a community-based nonprofit, unveils the revival of its cherished monthly night market.

Featuring a tantalizing array of culinary delights from esteemed vendors like AA Bakery, the Lucky Creation Vegetarian Restaurant, and Dragon Papa Dessert, alongside numerous other merchants, the night market promises a feast for the senses.

Chinatown has a rich tradition of hosting public gatherings, with events like the Mid-Autumn Festival and previous monthly night markets in Portsmouth Square drawing crowds and fostering a sense of community. Lily Lo, the visionary founder of BeChinatown, expresses her hopes for the event, stating, “I really want people to come out to support our small businesses by eating, shopping, and having fun! “
