Drop-in Family Ceramics Workshop

Randall Museum : 10:15 a.m. every Sat.

Many of us remember coming home from our elementary schools with freshly glazed pinchpots, cups, or whatever else our young imaginations could conjure up. Saturday mornings at the Randall Museum can bring that memory back, or create a new one for the youngsters. Ceramics make great gifts --... More >>

WTF: Women's, Trans/Genderqueer, and Femmes' Night

Bike Kitchen : 6:00 p.m. second Fri. of every month; 6:00 p.m. fourth Fri. of every month

In the name of Miriam Bengoetxea, Basque bike engineer (of Orbea Orca fame), we command you to attend WTF: the Women, Transgenderqueer, and Femme bike-fix night! Bengoetxea is one of the only women in the world designing carbon-fiber bicycle frames, partly because she's had the support of the... More >>

16th and Mission Poetry Slam

16th St. BART Station : 9:00 p.m. every Thu.

Sometimes, we need a little bit more than just poetry and music. Sometimes we have the urge to witness a wild-eyed man with one sweater sleeve missing shove pieces of paper into a coconut and then set it on fire - all while someone yells about why bird porn is a serious issue. The 16th &... More >>

Sunday Open Gyms

Eureka Valley Recreation Center : Every Sun.

Large American cities during the industrial age had amateur baseball leagues made up of blue-collar workers who created their own little societies unseen by the general populace. Men formed their teams — representing factories, power plants, and other facilities — developed rivalries,... More >>

Alcatraz Night Tour

Alcatraz Island : Every Mon., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun.

Alcatraz -- "The Rock" -- is one of those tours that you have to take at least once, whether you're local or just visiting. The abandoned prison sitting on an island about a mile and a half off the city's north shore was home to some of the most infamous names in crime, including Al Capone, it... More >>

North Beach/ Chinatown Tours, Outdoors, Arts

Hillbilly Hootenanny West Side Revue

The Riptide : 7:30 p.m. first Sun. of every month

The Outer Sunset is typically known for only a few things: surfing and fog. But recently the neighborhood has experienced a small revitalization in the form of local hotspots like Trouble Coffee, General Store, and Outerlands. This isn't to say that the area's long-established locales are going... More >>

Parkside/ Forest Hill Music, Arts

Precita Eyes Mission Trail Mural Walks

Precita Eyes Mural Arts & Visitors Center : 11:00 a.m. every Sat., Sun.

Mural people are nuts. Wall paintings never last and can't be purchased, and the people who go specifically to see them are often the hoi polloi who know nothing about art. How can muralists expect to survive in the art world? The answer: They don't. The folks who make their work on outdoor... More >>

Loni Love

Cobb's Comedy Club : 8:00 p.m. daily from May 24 until May 26; 7:30 p.m. May 25; 8:00 p.m. May 26

Thank goodness Loni Love quit her electrical engineering job to pursue a career in comedy. Electrical engineering is cool, sure; I mean, circuits? And there’s money and probably some stability in it, but when your friend’s dad tells jokes about, say, how he’s thinking about... More >>

Anna and the Annadroids presents Dullface

The Garage : 8:00 p.m. daily from May 29 until May 30

Plastic, fantastic, sarcastic robot dolls on the loose: Anna and the Annadroids presents Dullface, the newest quarter of their tetralogy Man(u)fractured. Anna Sullivan’s works are surrealist meditations on replication, mechanization, and objectification danced by a regiment of... More >>

Beat Memories: The Photographs of Allen Ginsberg

Contemporary Jewish Museum : Every Mon., Tue., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun. from May 23 until September 8

Just as he was finding his voice, and as The Beat Generation was swelling up around him, Allen Ginsberg began to take photographs of his friends — portraits that attempted to contain the integrity of each subject as well as an intimate moment between them. He did this for nearly a decade,... More >>

Meow Mix

The Stud : 11:00 p.m. every Tue.

We like our gay bars like we like our women — rough around the edges and with as little cover as possible. With its bordello-esque atmosphere and cheap drinks, it's no surprise that The Stud, one of the city's oldest gay bars, still reigns supreme. Sure, it can be a little cramped, and... More >>

South of Market Nightlife, LGBT Events, Cabaret & Drag

Humpday Happy Hour Workshop

Good Vibrations : 6:30 p.m. every Wed.

Not everyone is comfortable talking about sex. In fact, just hearing the word in public is enough to make some people uneasy, even here in liberal San Francisco. For those of you looking to explore your sexuality in the new year (or are just curious what the fuss is all about), head on over to... More >>

Nob Hill/ Russian Hill/ Fisherman's Wharf Sex & Fetish Events, Arts

Beach Blanket Babylon

Club Fugazi : Every Wed., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun.

Every San Franciscan has a list of local activities they haven't done that the average visitor to this city probably has. For us, that was Beach Blanket Babylon, the North Beach musical revue famous for its huge hats and culture-skewering whimsy. The show comes recommended by seemingly every... More >>

North Beach/ Chinatown Theater, Arts

Mark di Suvero at Crissy Field

Crissy Field : Daily from May 26 until May 26

With Mark di Suvero at Crissy Field, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art starts off big with its plans to go beyond its walls during the museum’s expansion project. In partnership with the National Park Service and Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, eight of di Suvero’s... More >>

Stand-Up Paddleboarding Lessons

Boardsports : Daily

When the ancient Polynesians invented surfing, they often used a paddle to help them navigate. Fast-forward a few millennia, and Stand-Up Paddleboarding, or SUP, finds itself trendy again. Part of its increasing popularity is that standing upright allows surfers to spot waves more easily and... More >>

Drunken Spelling Bee

Cafe Royale : 6:00 p.m. last Sun. of every month

“L-L-L-L-Lfffff.” What word is spelled like that? Nothing, but you never know how you might start spelling words when you’re drunk. That’s the idea behind the aptly-named Drunken Spelling Bee, during which competitive spellers can get all the beer they want for just $15... More >>

The Dream Queens Revue

Aunt Charlie's Lounge : 9:30 p.m. fourth Wed. of every month; 9:30 p.m. second Wed. of every month

In a city that prides itself (see what we did there?) on having one of the most prominent and active LGBT communities in the world, how do you determine the best place to see a drag show? By going to the place with the most glitter! Described by one Yelp reviewer as "a slightly skeezy gay bar... More >>

Family Kayak Trip

South Beach Harbor : 11:00 a.m. every Sat., Sun.

If Hollywood ever tries its hand at Escape from San Francisco, we hope there are kayaks involved. There just aren’t enough kayaks in action films, you know? We imagine the little boats riding a tsunami, hurtling toward the bad guys who have taken Coit Tower hostage, somehow managing to... More >>

Air Conditioning

House of Air : 7:00 p.m. every Mon., Wed.; 8:00 a.m. every Sat.

You like to have your butt thoroughly kicked, do you not? You may have already kicked your own butt with dance class, yoga class, brutal hikes, standard gym visits, athletic sex, or what have you, but have you done it on a trampoline? At Air Conditioning classes, use the power of bouncing to... More >>

The World Stage: Israel

Contemporary Jewish Museum : Every Mon., Tue., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun. until May 27

If you think you know what an exhibition opening at the Contemporary Jewish Museum looks like, think again. Kehinde Wiley’s “The World Stage: Israel” explores black diaspora and the international phenomenon of urban youth culture, and has all the makings of an art bash:... More >>

Literary Clown Foolery

The Booksmith : 8:00 p.m. second Fri. of every month

When it comes to innovation and sheer volume, the Bay Area literary scene is unrivaled. What other city devotes an entire month to literature (Litquake) and a dedicated pub crawl for the written word (Lit Crawl) every year? We’ve been known to hold readings in abandoned apartments (Live... More >>

Comedy Returns to El Rio!

El Rio : 8:00 p.m. second Mon. of every month

Mondays get a bad rap. It's a day often associated with depression, anxiety, and melancholy in pop culture. Think of "Monday, Monday" by the Mamas & the Papas, "Manic Monday" by the Bangles, and of course the memetastic "Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays" phrase popularized by... More >>

Animal Attraction

California Academy of Sciences : Daily

In ancient Rome, the god of fertility was honored in February, with ceremonial love lotteries and mock-floggings with a bloody goatskin. Even those are a pale reflection of truly bizarre courtships that unfold in the natural world. For example, the common garden snail is a hermaphrodite that... More >>

Girl with a Pearl Earring: Dutch Paintings from the Mauritshuis

de Young Museum : Every Tue., Wed., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun. until June 2

The girl in Johannes Vermeer’s painting Girl with a Pearl Earring has inspired a best-selling historical novel, a play, and a movie starring Scarlett Johannson. Now you too have the rare opportunity to view the famous “Dutch Mona Lisa” in person, which comes to our city as the... More >>

"Death Guild"

DNA Lounge : 9:30 p.m. every Mon.

Dying to dance, brood, or peel the yellow wallpaper off the wall? Well, so are these fun freaks. Join them at Death Guild, won't you? Every Monday night at DNA Lounge, gaggles of 18-and-over moody bastards come to show off their blackest attire and eyeliner while pouting to goth, industrial,... More >>
