Rockridge continues to be the hippest, hottest neighborhood in Oakland, CA with the best in small shops, destination restaurants and public transit. The neighborhood wants to encourage you to get Out and About tomorrow with a festival called exactly that! College Avenue will be closed off from Alcatraz to Lawton Avenue, with cross traffic at Claremont, Miles and Keith, so you can party in the street and enjoy a European-style pedestrian thoroughfare. There will be lots of food vendors, community organizations as well as the normal terrific shops showing you their goods. The only problem will be parking, so take BART! Then walk just two block from the Rockridge BART station up to my wonderful Arts & Crafts listing at 5591 Lawton Avenue, right near the New Style Stage of the festival! Hours are Noon – 6 pm. Enjoy this great community event!
