UPCOMING EVENTS

At our EMV After Hours events on most 2nd Tuesdays of the year, we gather,
inform, inspire and celebrate our vibrant community and the amazing
businesses, nonprofits and individuals that make it shine!

EMV After Hours – October 10th @ Homestead Valley Community Center, 5:30-7pm
For 111 years, this beautiful neighborhood facility has been at the center of bucolic Homestead Valley and a Community Center, public pool and grounds. The HVCA is embarking on a renovation of the gardens between Montford and the meadow to increase awareness of using native plants to mitigate the impacts associated with climate change. This will address opportunities to create an even better gathering space for the community to enjoy. 315 Montford Ave. MORE INFO.

EMV After Hours – November 14 @ Marin Rugs, 5:30-7pm
There aren’t many industries that are market saturation proof. But in Mill Valley, there appears to be a few, namely, nail and hair salons and, in recent years, rug purveyors.
The latest entry is Marin Rugs, the 2,400-square-foot space at the corner of Miller and La Goma St. that was previously the home to Showroom 383 Salon. Owner Diyar Borak says he caters to residents in Mill Valley and throughout Marin County, as well as customers nationwide who seek exquisite rugs to enhance their living spaces or design projects. 5:30-7pm. MORE INFO.

MV Chamber Holiday Party

EMV After Hours Holiday Party at Porsche Marin – Dec. 12, 5:30-7:30pm
There’s a reason why so many car commercials are filmed on our Mt. Tamalpais. One of those reasons is that we are home, in Strawberry, to one of the most beautiful Porsche dealerships – actually, any dealership – in the Bay. Join us as we celebrate an incredible 2023, celebrate the success, the resilience and, most of all, the incredibly vibrant town that we get to call home. As usual with our holiday parties, we'll have plenty of delicious food and drink from our friends. Don't miss this one!! 900 Redwood Highway Frontage Rd,., 5:30-7pm. MORE INFO.
