The Bulletin: The flood of festivals, car-free streets, and good vibes to come [Issue #76]

We're a ways off from the first official day of summer, but man, we've arrived: As you read this, you're on the precipice—the last relatively quiet weekend in the grand scheme of things—before all of the city's festivals and pedestrianized streets open up.

ChatGPT told us the number of festivities and parades varies each year (huh?), and a couple of preliminary sources suggest there's as many as 100, but even then that can't be taking full account of all the smaller and underground festivals taking over the city's cinemas, venues, and parks.

There's a lot to take in, but we'll be curating it all (hint hint tell your friends about our newsletter) to help you plan ahead and mix things up now and then. Don't forget: They're perfect for getting together with people you haven't seen in a while, and try to volunteer for the things you're passionate about.
