Outdoors?

Should you want to use an space for an event for non-profit and non-commercial groups engaged in educational, cultural, intellectual, or charitable activities, there is an outdoor alternative. The NNN can share the mid-block grassy space in the middle of the 1000 block of California for calm, neighbor-friendly activities. We are also happy to share parking lot space for small group meetings, when the lots are not otherwise in use. We would, of course, ask you clean up after any function.

The Outdoor spaces are not available for partisan political meetings, religious services, or private social functions.
