SUMMARY:Shaping SF: AI and Empire Building
DESCRIPTION:We bring together several sharp critics of the hype machine that has long characterized the internet and our successive tech booms\, currently blowing up in the AI bubble. Lost in the hand wringing over the more exaggerated claims of boosters and doomers is the ongoing reproduction of a colonial seizure of what should be our common wealth. This process has long historic roots and in some ways it is thanks to our amnesiac culture that the current crop of billionaire investors and tech bros have gotten away with doing it all again. Wendy Liu\, Alex Hanna\, Tamara Kneese\, and Elizabeth Travelslight.

SUMMARY:Manny’s: How Can San Francisco Be More Family-Friendly? Supervisor Danny Sauter D3
DESCRIPTION:Get the inside scoop with Supervisor Danny Sauter\, moderated by Mission Local editor Joe Eskenazi and catered by Smitten Ice Cream! \nCome join us in the next installment of our series: Scoop with a Supe! We learn the goings-on of SF politics from the supervisors directly\, getting the inside scoop on their policy priorities and confronting complex issues head-on. \nThis town hall style event is a great way to connect with the Board of Supervisors and others in your community. Most tickets include the price of a scoop of ice cream built in\, provided by Smitten Ice Cream! And thank you to Mission Local for its partnership and moderation from editor Joe Eskenazi! \n___________________________________________ \nSupervisor Danny Sauter represents District 3\, which comprises San Francisco’s incredible northeastern neighborhoods including the Barbary Coast & Northern Waterfront\, Chinatown\, Lower Nob Hill\, Financial District\, Fisherman’s Wharf\, Jackson Square\, Nob Hill\, North Beach\, Polk Gulch\, Russian Hill\, Telegraph Hill\, and Union Square. \nDanny has a deep background in District 3’s neighborhoods\, including serving on the board of his neighborhood association\, North Beach Neighbors\, for more than 8 years. During this time\, he started and ran the North Beach Farmers Market\, coordinated a free delivery service to support restaurants during the pandemic\, and organized neighborhood cleanups. He served as the first Housing Chair of the San Francisco Sierra Club and as the District 3 Director of the Eastern Neighborhoods Democratic Club. \nPrior to being elected to office\, Danny was the Executive Director of San Francisco Neighborhood Centers Together\, a citywide coalition of community centers serving youth and older adults. Through this work\, he strengthened community centers\, including Cameron House in Chinatown and TEL HI Neighborhood Center in North Beach. Danny also was the co-founder of Bamboo\, a marketing agency which he founded in District 3 and grew from 2 to 50 employees. \nDanny grew up in the Midwest with dreams of moving to San Francisco for its opportunities and dynamic culture. Danny’s passion for community service started at a young age. His father was a labor lawyer working with unions while his mother taught at his high school and directed the community service program for students. \nDanny studied at Miami University and graduated with a major in Marketing and dual-minors in Entrepreneurship and Chinese. He studied abroad in China during college and learned Mandarin. He has since taken Cantonese classes and been active in the Save Cantonese movement at City College. \nDanny and his wife have lived in North Beach for more than a decade. When he’s not working on community issues\, Danny enjoys exploring San Francisco’s bookstores and coffee shops\, traversing the city by Muni\, and cheering on the Giants. \n___________________________________________ \nSmitten Ice Cream serves the freshest\, creamiest ice cream on the planet. Known for its ultra-smooth texture and craveable flavors\, Smitten keeps things fresh by offering ever-evolving flavors alongside beloved classics. \nFounded in San Francisco by Robyn Sue Fisher\, Smitten began with a simple belief — ice cream tastes better when it’s made fresh. Robyn Sue invented and patented a machine that freezes ice cream in about 90 seconds\, taking it straight to the streets. In 2017\, she brought on Brooke Mosley\, and together they worked together to develop a proprietary ice cream base and continued to craft even more nostalgic\, unexpected flavors and experiences. In 2024\, Robyn handed the reins to Brooke\, ushering in the next chapter of Smitten. \nPraised by Vogue as “the freshest\, if not the best\, ice cream on Earth\,” and featured by Food & Wine\, The Infatuation\, Forbes\, Wired\, and TechCrunch\, Smitten operates popular scoop shops in San Francisco and San Jose\, along with a thriving catering business — and continues to find new ways to surprise and delight. \n___________________________________________ \nSince 2008\, Mission Local\, an independent news site based in the Mission District\, has been focused on high-impact\, enterprise reporting on everything from police reform to corruption at City Hall\, housing\, and the gig economy. Core to our mission is training the next generation of journalists who reflect the diversity of San Francisco. \nWe aspire to be a model of local\, self-sustaining\, fiercely independent news. \nOriginally a project of U.C. Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism\, we struck out on our own in 2014. In the summer of 2018\, we became a fiscally sponsored project. We kept growing and in October 2022\, the IRS granted Mission Local SF (EIN: 88-3177547) status as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: Barbacoa and Friends
DESCRIPTION:Barbacoa is the star of this class! Hailing from Central Mexico\, barbacoa is the OG Mexican BBQ\, traditionally cooked overnight in a hole in the ground surrounded by hot rocks until tender. These days\, you might find barbacoa on select Mexican restaurant menus as a weekend special\, primarily due to the long and slow simmering that yields the tempting\, tender meat.  \nWith Annelies’s guidance\, you and fellow students will make a juicy\, flavorful barbacoa two ways: slow-cooked shredded beef is an irresistible taco filling\, but so is mushroom barbacoa\, spiced and succulent. You will make homemade corn tortillas and flour tortillas to tuck those fillings into\, plus two kinds of sauce\, working with chile guajillo for a zesty BBQ sauce and chile pasilla for salsa. We’ll add grilled veggies to balance the mix-and-match meal that will get you ready for summer gatherings. You’ll have the confidence to make barbacoa at home\, no ground pit needed! \nMENU \nBarbacoa \nMushroom Barbacoa \nGuajillo Chile BBQ Sauce \nPasilla Salsa \nRoasted Vegetables \nFlour Tortillas \nCorn Tortillas

SUMMARY:Z Space: Becoming a Man
DESCRIPTION:Written by P. Carl\nDirected by Lyam B. Gabel \nMay 28 – June 14\, 2026\nZ Space’s Steindler Stage \nFor 50 years\, P. Carl lived as a girl and then a queer woman\, building a career and a loving marriage while waiting to realize himself in full. When he decides to affirm his gender\, his transition puts everything—family\, career\, friendships—at stake. A stage production based on the memoir\, Becoming a Man is a poignant and honest story about the courage and community it takes to become one’s true self and poses the question: “When we change\, can the people we love come with us?” Following a world premiere production at American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) at Harvard University\, P. Carl’s acclaimed story comes to life in its West Coast premiere at Z Space. \nGenerously funded in part by Battery Powered\, The Sheri and Les Biller Family Foundation\, The Sam Mazza Foundation\, and The Zellerbach Family Foundation.

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: Spring Sourdough Galettes: Sweet & Savory
DESCRIPTION:Marie’s popular class series is getting an update: a sourdough crust! \nPie crusts can be intimidating. The threat of mushy\, under-cooked undersides and the fear of rolling out concentric dough has kept many people from trying their hand at this pastry classic. Enter the galette. Galettes have all the flavor of pies but are far more low-key. No blind baking and no tedious crust crimping. They are the pastry equivalent of the dinner guest who always knows what to say and gets along with everyone.  \nJoin us as we learn how to make beautiful and flaky crusts while saluting the season with fillings that feature the produce of spring. \nBonus: You are welcome to bring in your own container and take home some of Marie’s sourdough starter. \nMENU \nBasic Sourdough Galette Dough  \nNew Potatoes & Leek Pesto Galette \nZucchini Blossom & Lemon Ricotta Galette \nBalsamic Roasted Strawberry Galette with Pine Nuts & Tarragon Crème Fraîche; served with Bi-Rite Creamery Vanilla Ice Cream \nSeasonal Salad

SUMMARY:Gray Area Grand Theater: After Thought
DESCRIPTION:After Thought is a concert that occurs slightly after it has already happened\, where the memories of computers and humans blur into something you won’t quite be able to forget (or fully remember). What exactly does a memory disk remember\, and what does it choose to leave behind? Ten composers interviewed the transistors\, microchips\, and hidden circuitry inside of our electronic devices to ask them about their childhood memories. What is a microchip’s favorite song? What happens when a transistor undergoes a transistential crisis? \nThis concert features works by ten Stanford composers– Anna Golubkova\, Brian Brown\, Calvin Van Zytveld\, Lemon Guo\, Nicholas Shaheed\, Mercedes Montemayor\, Walker Smith\, Mohammad H. Javaheri\, Héloïse Garry\, Kimia Koochakzadeh-Yazdi– with wide-ranging composition and performance practices spanning electronic and acoustic music\, audiovisual compositions and installations\, live coding\, custom-built instruments\, field recordings\, film\, dance and more!

SUMMARY:Z Space: Becoming a Man
DESCRIPTION:Written by P. Carl\nDirected by Lyam B. Gabel \nMay 28 – June 14\, 2026\nZ Space’s Steindler Stage \nFor 50 years\, P. Carl lived as a girl and then a queer woman\, building a career and a loving marriage while waiting to realize himself in full. When he decides to affirm his gender\, his transition puts everything—family\, career\, friendships—at stake. A stage production based on the memoir\, Becoming a Man is a poignant and honest story about the courage and community it takes to become one’s true self and poses the question: “When we change\, can the people we love come with us?” Following a world premiere production at American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) at Harvard University\, P. Carl’s acclaimed story comes to life in its West Coast premiere at Z Space. \nGenerously funded in part by Battery Powered\, The Sheri and Les Biller Family Foundation\, The Sam Mazza Foundation\, and The Zellerbach Family Foundation.

SUMMARY:ODC Theater: Laptopera Productions and 836M co-present The Glance: A Laptopera
DESCRIPTION:The Glance: A Laptopera is an immersive opera that reimagines the Orpheus myth for laptop orchestra and live voices. In this contemporary retelling\, lovers Orphea and Eurydice struggle to build intimacy in a world shaped by constant surveillance\, confronting their own limitations around trust and connection. Using motion-tracking\, looping systems\, and architectural sound instruments\, performers physically shape the music in real time—blending voice\, technology\, and movement. The result is a multisensory performance where sound\, body\, and story intertwine\, inviting audiences into a powerful exploration of surveillance\, control\, care\, and the fragile nature of trust in our technological age. \nCo-produced by Laptopera Productions and 836M\, The Glance was created by composer Anne Hege with collaborators including electronic instrument builders Daniel Iglesia and Curtis Ullerich; vocalists Sidney Chen\, Carmina Escobar\, and Michele Kennedy; art director Kim Anno; lighting designer Mitchell Ost; and choreographer Carrie Ahern.

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: High Voltage Herbs
DESCRIPTION:Herbs deserve more than garnish status. In this class\, we’ll explore how to use them with confidence\, creativity\, and a lot more range. We’ll start with a tasting of fresh and dried herbs so you can understand how their flavors shift and when each shines. You’ll learn how to wash\, store\, and preserve fresh herbs\, plus how to work with both tender herbs like basil and dill and sturdier ones like rosemary and thyme. We’ll talk about using herbs as major ingredients\, not just finishing touches\, and how to get flavor from both leaves and stems. Along the way\, you’ll make flexible\, modular recipes that help you improvise with what you have and build dishes around herbs instead of treating them as an afterthought. \nMENU \nHerb Oils: Five varieties\, dill\, mint\, basil\, parsley and mixed herb \nHerb Spreads: A tangy salsa verde and a piquant chimichurri  \nRoasted Vegetables with Herbs: Two varieties: one roasted with dried herbs and the other roasted and then mixed with fresh herbs. \nFrench Lentil Salad with Mixed Herbs: A vibrant mix of parsley\, dill\, and tarragon with a pomegranate molasses vinaigrette.  \nHerb-Infused Poached Seasonal Fruit: Two varieties of herbs\, served with a dollop of Bi-Rite Vanilla ice cream.

SUMMARY:Z Space: Becoming a Man
DESCRIPTION:Written by P. Carl\nDirected by Lyam B. Gabel \nMay 28 – June 14\, 2026\nZ Space’s Steindler Stage \nFor 50 years\, P. Carl lived as a girl and then a queer woman\, building a career and a loving marriage while waiting to realize himself in full. When he decides to affirm his gender\, his transition puts everything—family\, career\, friendships—at stake. A stage production based on the memoir\, Becoming a Man is a poignant and honest story about the courage and community it takes to become one’s true self and poses the question: “When we change\, can the people we love come with us?” Following a world premiere production at American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) at Harvard University\, P. Carl’s acclaimed story comes to life in its West Coast premiere at Z Space. \nGenerously funded in part by Battery Powered\, The Sheri and Les Biller Family Foundation\, The Sam Mazza Foundation\, and The Zellerbach Family Foundation.

SUMMARY:ODC Theater: Laptopera Productions and 836M co-present The Glance: A Laptopera
DESCRIPTION:The Glance: A Laptopera is an immersive opera that reimagines the Orpheus myth for laptop orchestra and live voices. In this contemporary retelling\, lovers Orphea and Eurydice struggle to build intimacy in a world shaped by constant surveillance\, confronting their own limitations around trust and connection. Using motion-tracking\, looping systems\, and architectural sound instruments\, performers physically shape the music in real time—blending voice\, technology\, and movement. The result is a multisensory performance where sound\, body\, and story intertwine\, inviting audiences into a powerful exploration of surveillance\, control\, care\, and the fragile nature of trust in our technological age. \nCo-produced by Laptopera Productions and 836M\, The Glance was created by composer Anne Hege with collaborators including electronic instrument builders Daniel Iglesia and Curtis Ullerich; vocalists Sidney Chen\, Carmina Escobar\, and Michele Kennedy; art director Kim Anno; lighting designer Mitchell Ost; and choreographer Carrie Ahern.
