Recommended Events

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

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 and Fetish Events, Arts

Fiction: Second Annual Portrait Invitational

Modern Eden : 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. every Tue., Wed., Thu., Fri., Sat. from June 22 until July 13

Like forensic artists sketching suspects from victims' statements, 29 painters hope to better capture the essence of literary characters from their author's descriptions in "Fiction: 2nd Annual Portrait Invitational." Taking artistic license, tattooist Terry Ribera's scarred but victorious... More >>

Embarcadero Free Events, Arts, Art - Galleries

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 >>

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 >>

Haight/ Fillmore Literary Events, Circus, Cabaret and Drag, Arts

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 >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Nightlife, Comedy, Arts

"Oldies Night"

The Knockout : 10:00 p.m. first Fri. of every month

Few things can match the sheer exuberance of a packed house at Oldies Night. The long-standing Mission staple is one of the best places in the city to lose yourself and sweat it out dancing to soul 45s. DJs Primo and Daniel serve up a broad selection of cuts (both common and rare) to a crowd of... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Nightlife, Music

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 >>

Richmond (Inner) Museum Exhibits and Events, Family Events, Children's Events

"Lost & Found"

Make-Out Room : 9:30 p.m. every Tue.

While most '60s soul parties are dedicated to uptempo bangers, Lost & Found takes a different tack. Thrown Tuesday nights at the Make-Out Room, it's an evening dedicated to the slower side of soul with a playlist that sounds tailor-made for some hip '60s prom. Veteran DJs Lucky and Primo...

Mission/ Bernal Heights Nightlife, Music

Smack Dab

Magnet : 7:30 p.m. third Wed. of every month

Buried deep down in the very core of our hearts is the passion to perform. We secretly want to dress in 1960s get-up, strap on a ukulele, and do Tiny Tim covers. No? Maybe that's just us. However, we can all agree on the burning desire to perform and create art. The hard part (besides mustering... More >>

Castro/ Noe Valley Open Mic, LGBT Events, Arts

"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 >>

South of Market Nightlife, Music

"Hard French"

El Rio : 2:00 p.m. first Sat. of every month

At this point in time, Hard French might as well be a local institution. Now into its third season, the Motown-heavy queer day party presents itself as a viable alternative to the usual Saturday hangover damage control. Head down to the El Rio and you'll be able to catch six hours of "hard... More >>

Sketch Tuesdays

111 Minna Gallery : 6:00 p.m. fourth Tue. of every month

Sketch Tuesdays, founded in 2006, is a monthly event where 20 or so local artists hang out and make their art on a small scale. When the artwork is completed it becomes available to purchase by the audience mingling nearby -- and often for cheap! If you like the funky fresh art up on the wall... More >>

South of Market Arts

The Romane Event

Make-Out Room : 8:00 p.m. last Wed. of every month

Paco Romane had a big vision for The Romane Event when he launched it in 2005. He pictured a monthly showcase of a broad range of entertainers, including stand-up comedians, poets, rockers, and those with extraordinary talents. The premiere event put the spotlight on a local yo-yo champion. As... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Nightlife, Comedy

Classical Revolution

Revolution Cafe : 8:00 p.m. every Mon.

Armed with stringed instruments and intense training from the likes of Juilliard and the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, Classical Revolution is on a mission to change the way classical music is perceived and performed in this city. Conceived in late 2006, the collective's intent has been... More >>

Fresh Like Cadaver

Lost Weekend Video : 8:00 p.m. second Fri. of every month

Didn’t your momma ever tell you it was rude to talk during the movie? Unless, that is, the following conditions exist: The movie is godawful, you’re parked on a couch with someone who shares your bad attitude, and you’re a world-class wit. That last prerequisite is usually the... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Film Events and Repertory, Comedy

Pug Sunday

Alta Plaza Park : 2:30 p.m. first Sun. of every month

They're squat, fat, and prone to a myriad of health issues. They resemble miniature Ewoks and can be heard blocks away by their heavy snorting and grunting. Of course the people of San Francisco want to dedicate one day each month to this creature, the pug. Pug owners, enthusiasts, and friends... More >>

Japantown/Pacific Heights Pets, Free Events, Arts

Some Thing

The Stud : Every Fri.

The unGoogleable inheritor of the Trannyshack art-drag scepter is known as Some Thing; each Friday brings a new theme via semi-pun. It could be simple, such as Some Thing Good, or it could be A Li’l Sumptin’ Some Thing, which is funny but what are you going to wear? The first show... More >>

"The Teenage Dance Craze"

The Knockout : 10:00 p.m. last Fri. of every month

We're just dreaming, but here is our dream: to see dive-bar dancers whose attention to detail matches the obsession of Bay Area vintage-music DJs. For example, at Lonely Teardrops' doo-wop night about a year ago, we lost our composure and requested a Claudine Clark song. "I have one," the DJ... More >>

San Francisco City Guides Walking Tours

Multiple San Francisco Locations : Daily

As a self-described "logical extension of a free public library," our local free walking-tour company is, like most libraries, a fascinating mash of nerdy and white-hot rad. The San Francisco City Guides walking tours happen every day (except major holidays), are free, and follow in the... More >>

Guided Tours of Coit Tower Murals

Coit Tower : 11:00 a.m. every Wed.

Coit Tower has its history, and it's definitely got its views -- and some of the best of each is inside the tower itself. The murals, commissioned during the beginning of the New Deal in the 1930s as a way to get artists back to work were painted by some masters in modern art history. After... More >>

Paxton Gate Storyhour

Paxton Gate's Curiosities for Kids : 12:00 p.m. every Thu.

Have you ever seen a Gritchen in your kitchen? Or dared to dance with the One-Legged Zantz? We can’t think of a better time to start than during the final days before Christmas. Long out of print, Don’t Bump the Glump was Shel Silverstein’s first and strangest collection of... More >>

Writers with Drinks

Make-Out Room : 7:30 p.m. second Sat. of every month

When you move to San Francisco and ask about the literary scene, Writers With Drinks is likely the first thing people tell you about. For one thing, most of us can get behind drinking as a social activity, especially when it’s being done by the witty and verbose. But the real reason is... More >>

Mission/ Bernal Heights Poetry and Spoken Word, Literary Events, Arts

"Housepitality"

F8 : 9:00 p.m. every Wed.

Like hunger, the urge to dance can strike at rather inopportune moments. When you get that midweek itch, Housepitality is something you can turn to for relief. Put on by Miguel Solari and PillowTalk's Michael Tello, it's a weekly affair dedicated to the deeper strains of dance music. Swing by... More >>

The News

SOMArts Cultural Center : First Tue. of every month

For a city flooded with artists that doubles as a mecca for the queer community, San Francisco seems to sometimes have trouble letting go of the formalities of a professional art and performance world. Limited gallery time and space mean carefully selected artists are expected to put out... More >>
