By Annika Hom, Mission Local April 7, 2022 What's up everyone! If you haven't been enjoying spring yet, April is definitely the month to get off your butts and head outside. There's the Cesar Chavez parade and 415 Day and 4/20… in other words, it's time to get Four loko! We got you on the news and the events. Let's go!

The nonprofit Calle 24 Latino Cultural District is launching an economic recovery program dubbed Calle Limpia Corazón Contento, and one way they think the corazón will be contento is by adding art to the neighborhood. To prevent unwanted graffiti and maintain the gorgeous aesthetics of the street, Calle 24 is commissioning muralists to paint "micro-murals" on the walls of local storefronts on 24th. All the artists will be paid and create their works on May 7. To read the full article, click here.
