One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

This Saturday from 2 p.m.-10 p.m., Manhattan's famous indie street fair will be coming to Hollywood. There will be over 100 alternative apparel, accessory, and lifestyle vendors in attendance, as well as heaps of food purveyors and a craft cocktail/biergarten run by Reissco, commonly known for their work with A-Frame, Sunny Spot, the Brig, and the Alibi Room.

As for the food, Cousin's Maine Lobster truck, Coolhaus, Mama Masubi, Mandoline Grill, Bool BBQ, Dosa Truck, Gravy Train Poutinerie, Preservation Society, and Modern Bite will be in attendance.

You can view a bit more about the clothiers, jewlers, and artists that will be at the Hester Street Fair on their site. It will take place on Hollywood Blvd. and Argyle Ave., right near the Hollywood and Vine Metro stop. There will also be a paid parking lot on site.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our nonprofit newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor. Our only loyalty is to our readers and listeners and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen Southern California’s communities.
