Ray at Night - Coming up

Your San Diego freebie for:

Saturday, June 12, 6 to 9:30 p.m.

Find it:

At and around Ray Street in North Park (between University Avenue and North Park Way).

Thanks to Lisa, co-owner of Olive Branch Green Building Supply, for this tip.
It looks like galleries and other shops host artwork during the monthly Ray at Night event. So, yes of course you can spend money at Ray at Night. I'm sure merchants and artists would prefer it.
Otherwise, it looks like a good opportunity to explore North Park.
