Valencia Bottoms: A Real Good Time

Last night, our microhood party returned! Hundreds of folks swarmed Valencia Street at 15th to check out the unique offerings from Four Barrel Coffee, Nooworks, Farnsworth, Michael Rosenthal Gallery, and The Common. We playfully titled the event Valencia Bottoms and were happy to welcome a couple great sponsors, Zipcar and Speakeasy Ales & Lagers, to join in the fun.

Tove

In between digging complimentary libations and unmissable deals at each of the participating shops, people relaxed on Valencia Street to soak up a bit of sun ...

Rosenthal Gallery hosted a one-night only gallery sale featuring some awesome art, while Michael from The Common mixed magical cocktails that showcased delicious and hard-to-find liquors, Root and Snap.


Fourbarrel

Four Barrel proved that beer and coffee do indeed belong together. There's nothing better than Four Barrel's affogato (a shot of their expresso and a scoop of vanilla ice cream) paired with Speakeasy's Big Daddy I.P.A.


Zip2

Zipcar was on hand to sign people up for their unique car sharing service.

And Little Knock's Vietnamese food cart made sure that no one went hungry.

Thanks to our participating merchants, sponsors, donors, and everyone who came out for making Valencia Bottoms one of our best microhood parties yet. We can't wait for the next one.
