SUMMARY:Tenderloin Museum One Year Anniversary Celebration
DESCRIPTION:On July 16th\, 2016 the Tenderloin Museum will have been open for one year. Please join us in celebrating this important milestone at our free community day celebration from 10am-9pm\, with free hourly programming from 1pm-8pm. The mission of the Tenderloin Museum is to inspire and serve the neighborhood. The museum’s permanent collection and Neighborhood Walking Tours offer locals and tourists alike an opportunity to learn the history of the Tenderloin and experience San Francisco’s most unique neighborhood\, a history that has been routinely overlooked in historical accounts of San Francisco. Our evening programming celebrates the Tenderloin’s rich artistic community and features live music\, theatre performances\, film screenings\, lectures\, local artist exhibitions\, poetry nights\, and much more. \nOur first year has been exceptional because of all the incredible partnerships we’ve forged with other museums\, non-profit organizations\, artists\, local businesses\, and our neighbors. Our first anniversary will be spent celebrating those partnerships. \nProgramming Schedule: \n1pm- Youth Magic Class with Magician Mike Della Penna\nMike will begin with a performance followed by a short teach-in session where attendees will learn to perform a few simple\, yet powerful magic effects to amaze friends\, family\, or even an audience! For Tenderloin youths & our SF & Bay Area neighbors\, for ages 8-98\n2pm- Asian Art Museum\nA storyteller from the Asian Art Museum will delight visitors with a short story from the Rama Epic recounting the struggle of Prince Rama. His epic has been a prime subject for visual and performing arts\, literature\, and religious thought in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia\n3pm- Larkin Street Youth Services- Vocal Chords\nYouth Choir at Larkin Street’s Youth Arts Program\n4pm- California Historical Society\nBilly Jennings\, founder of the Black Panther Archive and former Black Panther will discuss the history and impact of the Black Panther Party in City of San Francisco and show small portions of his archive\n5pm- Don Herron on Dashiell Hammett\nDiscussion about the famous American author dubbed the “Grandfather of Noir” and his close relationship to the Tenderloin\n6pm- Skywatchers\nTenderloin residents celebrate a resistance to oppression and affirm their community through music\, dance and spoken word\n7pm- Café Society SF\nA night of contemporary jazz with Tenderloin-based Cafe Society featuring vocalist Tomas Jay with the Dave Austin trio\, and special guest vocalists\n8pm- Aunt Charlie’s Dream Queens Revue Drag Show\nQueens Donna Personna\, Collette LeGrande & the TL Museum’s own Cruzin d’Loo will dazzle us with drag performances \nResident Artists’ Group Show:\nOn display in our museum store\nThe Tenderloin Museum Artist in Residence program facilitates the display of San Francisco Bay Area art. With a new exhibition every one to two months\, the Museum Store becomes a gallery for a wide variety of mediums. From graphic-designed art objects to screen – printed pennants\, from photography to letterpress prints – all with a Tenderloin specific object or theme. By helping to bring art to the Tenderloin and highlighting the art already in the neighborhood\, this Artist Program bridges the history of one of San Francisco’s oldest neighborhoods to the culture of today. All of our previous resident artists will be featured in a group show opening July 16th\, part of our One Year Anniversary Celebration. Featured artists include Ryan De La Hoz\, Jacinto Castillo\, Kelly Nicolaisen\, Nan Castle\, and Darwin Bell. Public art project Temporal Cities (created by Tenderloin artists Lizzy Brooks and Radka Pulliam) will also be sharing work collected through partnership with the Tenderloin Museum. \nThank you for all the support you’ve given us this first year. We are so excited to be a part of the neighborhood and continue to support a thriving Tenderloin. We look forward to celebrating this important milestone with you.

SUMMARY:Booksmith is Turning 40
DESCRIPTION:Who’s invited: \nFriends\, neighbors\, customers\, writers\, book club members\, Bookswappers\, Shipwreckers\, celebrities\, Aileen\, Olympians of Literature\, employees past\, present\, and future\, and everyone else who makes our store great. \nWhat will we do: \nYou’re invited to contribute a story. It can be about the Haight Ashbury\, or about Booksmith in any of its iterations. From starting at 4\, local writer and editor Anisse Gross will be on hand to help you capture your story and add it to our already storied (sorry) history. We’ll provide everything you need; just bring your memories. (Bonus points for vintage Booksmith ephemera! Break out your old bookmarks\, totes\, newsletters\, and author trading cards. We know you kept them.) \nIf you love the Booksmith’s art\, we’re going to have Design Like Whoa set-up to print t-shirts and totes of our favorite designs. We’ll be selling shirts for a special birthday only price of $9 and totes for $5 to be printed with a Booksmith design of your choice\, or you can bring your own item to be printed for free! (100% cotton and white or light grey only\, no tie-die here folks). \nAt 5:30 pm we’ll have an Official 40th Birthday Toast with cake. Then on to eating\, drinking\, mingling\, and\, dare we suggest: dancing. \nWhen: 4:00pm-7:00pm \nWhy: \nOwners Christin Evans and Praveen Madan\, former owner Gary Frank\, and all the Booksmith staff are excited to share this moment with our unique\, vibrant community. As the Haight Ashbury’s premiere independent bookstore since 1976\, we’re more ambitious than ever to launch fearlessly into the future of bookselling. We’re experimenting with new business models\, leading the #Fightfor15 charge\, and building on our four-decade legacy of fostering communities around books\, writers\, and readers. \nJoin us to raise a glass\, tell your stories\, and hang out with the Booksmith gang.
