The historic Mexican War Streets district in Central Northside will host its annual yard sale Saturday, June 6 from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. The boundaries are Brighton Road, Federal Street,  North Avenue and Jefferson Street.

Last year over 60 homes participated and 2,000 people attended, according to event organizers, while this year over 60 houses plan to participate.

Headquarters will be in the parking lot on lower Buena Vista Street at approximately 1210 Buena Vista St.  There patrons will find the Mexican War Street Society Welcome Table; food trucks, including BRGR, All in Good Taste, Square Cafe Brunch Truck, La Palapa and BEER as well as other vendors such as Little Yesterday’s, Tollgate Vintage, “The Bottle Guys,” Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation & more.

This year will also include a meet & greet with tattoo artist Sarah Miller where you can enter to win a $1,000 gift certificate towards a tattoo session with the Ink Master star. Miller owns Wylde Chyld Tattoo in Brookline and also competed in Season 2 of Spike’s television series Ink Masters, in which she finished as runner-up.
