Overview

Mission

To produce and present a free annual community street fair in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco honoring the neighborhoods legacy of counterculture activism and artistic expression while supporting local artists small businesses musicians and community organizations.

What it reported doing in 2025

Perfect that confirms it. Since HASF paid the veterans directly not the organization here is the updated paragraph with the Swords to Plowshares sentence added back in plus a clean 1099 explanation built right into it: In 2025 the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair HASF produced and presented its annual free community street fair along Haight Street in San Franciscos historic Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. Celebrating over four decades of community tradition the fair was open and free to the general public and drew thousands of community members families artists and visitors. The event featured live music performances on two stages the Main Stage and the Masonic Stage showcasing both established and emerging local musicians consistent with HASFs mission to support independent artists and preserve the neighborhoods legacy of live music and cultural expression. The fair included juried artisan vendors handmade goods vintage and collectible merchandise and a curated selection of local small businesses offering affordable commercial space that would otherwise be inaccessible to independent sellers. Program activities included the HASF Skate Jam a free skateboarding competition celebrating youth street culture; Childrens Alley offering face painting interactive crafts and family-friendly programming for children of all ages; and the HASF ArtWalk which transformed storefronts and sidewalks into publicly accessible art galleries featuring works by local visual artists. HASF partnered with Swords to Plowshares a veterans service organization to provide on-site monitors and waste management staff; individual veterans referred through Swords to Plowshares were paid directly by HASF with each individual receiving less than $600 during the tax year and therefore no Forms 1099-NEC were required. Support for the 2025 event was provided in part through a grant from San Francisco Grants for the Arts. The fair was produced entirely by community volunteers and a small program staff with no admission charge to the public. Total program service expenses: $82,550. No grants were made to other organizations.
