What to do at Streets Alive! ? Walk, bike, roll, dance, play, and hang out with neighbors and friends. Enjoy all the new found space when streets are closed to cars and open to people. Spontaneous and unscheduled activity is encouraged, from lemonade stands to four square games. Simply claim a space and remember to leave at least half the street for people to easily walk, bike or roll past. Or join in the activities listed below.

As you enjoy yourselves, please also remember that Streets Alive! is a family and community friendly event put together by a small team of dedicated community members. We discourage the production of waste (no trash, thanks; if you carry it in, carry it out), uncomfortable levels of sound and danger, and extra work; and we encourage the production of smiles and kindnesses along the way. Everyone has to clear the streets by 5pm. Thank you!
