About Jingletown: Jingletown
acquired its name at the turn of the century when Portuguese cannery
workers whose earnings would "jingle" in their pockets at the end of the
day as they walked home from the factories in the area, signifying
prosperity. As time went on the neighborhood went into disuse, but in
the early 1980’s artists realized the potential and converted many of
the neglected warehouses into functioning live/work spaces. It is now a
thriving artist community and one of the fastest growing arts district
in the Bay Area.
In
a time when our neighborhood has been changing dramatically, the goal
of the Jingletown Arts and Business Community is to heighten awareness
about the rich and diverse population of working and exhibiting artists
and the creative opportunities in the Jingletown Arts District.
