SUMMARY:Shaping SF: Lost Golden Gate Park
DESCRIPTION:Three events created most of the map of contemporary Golden Gate Park: the Midwinter Fair of 1893\, the building projects of the WPA\, and the construction of Highway 1. Our guest guide\, Nancy Botkin\, creator of the walking tours in the new book\, Discovering Golden Gate Park: A Local’s Guide\, leads us on a walk of “Lost Golden Gate Park”. With few entry points\, this semi-secret area is arguably the least visited section of Golden Gate Park\, much of it unchanged since the Depression. We explore a 20-acre section that was cut from the rest of the park by the creation of Crossover Drive/ Park Presidio Bypass / Highway 1 to speed traffic from 19th Ave to the Golden Gate Bridge. You’re pretty much guaranteed to see things you’ve never noticed before\, including special views of the Bridge. \nDistance: 2-3 miles\, expect rugged dirt trails with uneven surfaces. \nRSVP to shaping@foundsf.org

SUMMARY:Accion Latina: De Aquí y De Allá by Nicolas Gonzalez-Medina (opening reception)
DESCRIPTION:NEW EXHIBITION by Nicolas Gonzalez-Medina opening on April 4th at Acción Latina featuring a DJ set by La Favi 🌹\nDe Aquí y De Allá\nResistance & Resilience\nBy Nicolas Gonzalez-Medina\nWood Block Students Featuring Work: JoJo\, Cristina Medrano\, Faustina Ngo\, Nayelli Rosas\nGrowing up undocumented shaped Nicolas Gonzalez-Medina’s understanding of home and belonging. Arriving at 5\, following his parents’ dreams of a better life\, art became his refuge\, a space to navigate identity and find his voice.\nNow\, his woodblock prints carve through borders and erasure\, amplifying voices and igniting conversations. Bold lines and political messages reveal the power of artivism\, rooted in his journey and the resilience of our communities.\nBorn in Guanajuato\, raised in Chicago\, and now based in Oakland\, Nicolas is an artist and activist whose work lives in the streets as much as the gallery\, uplifting voices of queer\, undocumented communities.\nDe Aquí y De Allá is an exploration of traditional wood block printing in today’s modern world. The exhibit will feature hand carved and printed wood blocks that spark conversations about identity\, culture and social justice movements. Bold lines and expressive faces printed on fabric and paper along with butterfly and portrait motifs representing their BORDERLESS life as they fly freely coloring the skies.\nThese ancient motifs are decorated with string art\, showing their complexities and beauty.\nJoin us at Acción Latina on April 4th from 2–8PM for the opening reception\, with DJ sets by DJ Muy Muy and La Favi.

SUMMARY:Dance Mission Theater: Queering Dance Festival presents FROLIC!
DESCRIPTION:Queering Dance Festival presents\nFROLIC!\nApril 2-4th\, 2026 at Dance Mission Theater \nTickets: $0-45  https://www.viewcy.com/event/frolic2026 \nThursday\, April 2\, 8pm\nFriday\, April 3\, 8pm  (ASL Interpretation)\nSaturday\, April 4\, 5pm (ASL Interpretation & Audio Description – Haptic Access tour at 4pm) \nBack for another year of powerful\, sexy\, experimental queer dance\, the Queering Dance Festival’s FROLIC! presents six Bay Area LBGTQ+ artists. Transmutation\, monstrosity\, sex work as vital ritual\, tap as tribute\, and more infuse the vibrant works presented by this year’s commissioned artists. \n2026 Artists\nMicah Sallid\nWailana Simcock\nTajinder Virdee\nB Dean / BODYSTORM\nNina Haft & Company\nSaharla Vetsch // Major Hammy & Garrett Lukas Dellios // Beef Cakes \nABOUT\nMicah Sallid offers a Hoofers (tap) love letter to Oakland—its rhythm\, its people\, its power. Driven by the contagious flow of the R&B group Tower of Power’s “What Is Hip\,” it celebrates community\, diversity\, and the electric pulse that “The Town” radiates into the world. \n“Full Release\,” from choreographer Wailana Simcock\, exxxplicitly engages sex and sex work\, challenging a culture that casts pleasure as transgression. Reaching beneath moral inheritance and into pre-Christian bodies and desires\, the work insists on pleasure as a vital\, generative force. Personal testimony dissolves into fiction; drag kinships collide with Grindr confessions; ritual meets transaction atop a massage table. \nIn “Whispers of the Womb\,” Tajinder Virdee acknowledges the unprocessed grief of miscarriage in their ancestral lineage while disrupting binary understandings of transness and dysphoria. Their performance explores with curiosity what the womb space can teach us about what it means to care and nourish life. \nIn a stark\, dimly-lit dystopia where flesh deviates and identities fracture\, B Dean/BODYSTORM’s “TEETH” plunges into the shadows where trans bodies become monstrous\, not as objects of horror\, but as sites of radical imagination and necessary adaptation. \nNina Haft & Company presents “Facing Gaza\,” a duet about choice and complicity in a time of genocide. \nSaharla Vetsch // Major Hammy & Garrett Lukas Dellios // Beef Cakes: All that you touch\, you change. All that you change changes you. We are echoes of ourselves and those that invoke transmutation; past\, present\, and future. \nAccess Information\n-ASL Interpretation provided at Friday and Saturday  shows.\n-Live Audio Description by Gravity Access Services on Saturday with a Haptic Access Tour one hour before showtimes.\n-Dance Mission is an ADA accessible space. The theater is on the second level with access via an elevator. Please note that except for the first row\, all other seats in the theater are only accesssible via staits.

SUMMARY:ATA: OC: Optronica The J Lee Mobile Unit
DESCRIPTION:Other Cinema’s early April ‘split-ticket’ of “Wavelength Works” initially focuses on the Visible Range\, while next Saturday’s attends to the larger electromagnetic spectrum. Among tonight’s repertoire we’ll be treated to an arguably ‘West Coast’ predilection for Light\, both electric.. and from paraffin! Here’s a trifecta of optical superstars\, each of whom steps up to the challenge of a live expanded cinema performance: Divya Farias and Alex Mejía bring Sleep When The Baby Sleeps\, an audiovisual act for film\, video\, saxophone\, and voice. Working in high-contrast rhythms of sound and image\, the piece explores sleep not as rest\, but as a paradoxical threshold—where exhaustion breeds agitation\, memories loop\, and the body resists its own release. Fragmented moving images\, optical pulses\, breath\, and saxophone lines spiral between tension and surrender. PLUS: The J Lee Mobile Unit is a daring arrangement of projectors\, keyboard\, candelabras\, and free-hanging mobiles\, all synchronized by the ‘Third Hand Collective‘ to enact a marvelously playful sound/shadow-play improv. Jake Scott returns from CalArts with the premiere of his triple-projector How Everything Is Connected as the finale to this program\, that also proffers pieces by Francois Miron and Craig Baldwin\, so as to provide refreshing visuals between live acts. A Tommy Becker Loopy Overture welcomes all into our Dream Machine pre-show milieu. $14

SUMMARY:Manny’s: Scoop with a Supe: Supervisor Matt Dorsey (D6)
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy this ice cream social with D6 Supervisor Matt Dorsey\, catered by local shop Smitten Ice Cream! \nCome join us in the next installment of our series: Scoop with a Supe! \nThis town hall style event is a great way to connect with your local supervisor and others in your community. Each ticket includes the price of a scoop of ice cream built in\, provided by Smitten Ice Cream! \nSupervisor Matt Dorsey represents District 6. Matt is a City government veteran who most recently served on the command staff of the SFPD as the department’s communications director. \nPreviously\, Supervisor Dorsey served for fourteen years in the San Francisco City Attorney’s Office\, where he worked to support groundbreaking cases around marriage equality\, education access\, public health\, tenants rights\, and worker protections. \nSupervisor Dorsey is an out gay man who joined Supervisor Mandelman as the Board’s second LGBTQ member. He is also the only openly HIV positive member of the Board of Supervisors and the only current member to acknowledge his history with substance-use disorder. \nPrior to joining SFPD in 2020\, Dorsey led Tobacco-Free Kids’ communications strategy for the 2019 No on Prop C campaign\, soundly defeating a multimillion-dollar ballot measure by vaping giant JUUL Labs\, Inc. that became the most expensive per-vote loss in San Francisco history. \nSupervisor Dorsey is committed to providing paths to recovery for those struggling with addiction\, supporting new housing at all levels to meet growing demand\, and investing in public safety resources to ensure that all people can feel safe in their communities. \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.
