MOMENT Downtown San José Pop-Up Program
In collaboration with the San José Downtown Association and funded by the City of San José, the MOMENT Downtown San José Program significantly lowers the barrier of entry for local creative small businesses to have their retail storefront in downtown San José by providing affordable percentage-based rent terms, space improvement grants, and significant marketing support through MOMENT and its sister company San José Made. MOMENT currently operates across three districts in downtown San José: San Pedro Square, Paseo de San Antonio, and Post Street.

2026 Downtown Street Activations
Following the success of San Pedro Saturdays in 2025, the San José Downtown Association (SJDA) once again contracted Moveable to create a four-month programming schedule (running from March 2026 through June 2026) to activate various districts of downtown San José. Due to exterior construction on the Market & San Pedro Square Parking Garage, these small to medium-scale events were held in brand new locations: Paseo de San Antonio, Parque de Los Pobladores in SoFA, and Post Street.
With the series designed to bring high levels of foot traffic, vibrancy, and attention to different parts of downtown, the Downtown San José Activations brought back four of the most popular themes from San Pedro Saturdays: San José Cat Day (March), Stationery Depot (April), Spring Bloom (May), and Prismatic Market (June).

San Pedro Saturdays
In late 2024, the San José Downtown Association contracted Moveable to pilot a monthly programming schedule (running from December 2024 through July 2025) on the permanent street closure within downtown’s San Pedro Square. What resulted is San Pedro Saturdays, an activation series designed to bring high levels of foot traffic, vibrancy and attention to this part of downtown and to help reimagine this pedestrian street as an appealing events and gathering space.

MOMENT Marketplace at Google Mountain View
Opened in October 2023, MOMENT Marketplace was a new storefront concept featuring locally made and locally designed goods from over 75 makers and artists. Powered by the team behind San José Made, MOMENT Marketplace represented a wonderful way to celebrate and support our small business community. Every three months, MOMENT Marketplace brought a new theme to its storefront, featuring products and one-of-a-kind pieces carefully curated based on that fun new theme.
MOMENT Marketplace was located in the Pop-Up Shop at the Google Visitor Experience, located at Google’s Gradient Canopy office (formerly “Charleston East”) in Mountain View, California.
