Columbia Street Block Party

This long-running last-Friday-of-the-month event closes the 200 to 500 blocks of Columbia Street to anything with an engine, providing lots of opportunities for fun on foot instead. The classic car people and the shop owners will be handing out goodies accordingly, plus live music at local venues. Shops and restaurants open late, too. 6 pm–9 pm. Free. covla.com.
