We are a Utah nonprofit corporation organized exclusively for charitable, educational, and civic purposes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Harvey Milk built his movement from a small storefront, believing that main streets belong to the people who keep them: the shopkeepers, the artists, the neighbors who show up. That is the spirit of this District. In carrying his name along our central corridor, we commit to a neighborhood that stays welcoming and open to everyone, where independent businesses have a voice, and where difference is not just tolerated but celebrated as the source of our character.
Ours is being repainted this fall by Jiyoun Lee-Lodge, with an unveiling in early October. District merchandise carrying the new design comes after that — small runs for the people who spend their Saturdays here, the coffee, the bookstore, the dogs, the whole block. Take a piece of it with you.
