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.

How do we trace the evolution and transformation of Eureka Valley\, a sleepy\, Irish Catholic residential neighborhood to the Castro as a center of LGBTQ+ activism\, business\, and community in the Bay Area? \nAuthors Jen Reck and Gerard Koskovich present their new booklet\, The Castro: The Story of San Francisco’s Best-Known LGBTQ+ Neighborhood. They will be joined by Tina V. Aguirre\, director of the Castro LGBTQ+ Cultural District\, and Devin McGeehan Muchmore\, managing reference archivist at the GLBT Historical Society\, who’ll discuss the roles of their organizations in bringing the project to fruition.  \nThe Castro traces the history of this celebrated “gayborhood” back to the 1950s\, focusing on LGBTQ+ community-building\, cultural production and political engagement; on forces of opposition that targeted the neighborhood for attack; and on struggles around diversity\, exclusion and belonging within the community itself. Copies of the publication will be available for purchase and signing.

SUMMARY:Brick & Mortar Music Hall: Goldenvoice presents PRYVT with J.Y.N
DESCRIPTION:Goldenvoice presents\nPRYVT\nwith J.Y.N\nApril 10\, 2026 9:00 pm PDT (Doors: 8:00 pm )\nBrick and Mortar Music Hall \, 1710 Mission Street \, San Francisco\, CA (map)  \nFormed on Discord in 2023\, atmospheric indie rock band PRYVT launched their career with a highly unusual feat\, amassing more than 20 million streams\, landing on Spotify’s Viral 50 charts in several countries\, and opening for one of South Korea’s biggest indie rock band wave to earth\, all before the members had ever even met in person. \nWhile PRYVT’s whirlwind rise may have happened in the blink of an eye\, the band’s captivating debut\, &SCENE\, is a measured and deliberate affair. The music is lush and dreamy\, built on hazy\, reverb-soaked guitars and hypnotic\, laidback grooves\, and the production is mesmerizing to match\, with ‘s breathy\, intimate vocals always front and center in the mix. At times\, the lyrics slip between English and Korean\, but the emotions they convey transcend language\, and the result is more than just an album; it’s a borderless sonic world to get lost in\, an immersive\, cinematic blend of alt-rock and bedroom pop that erases time and distance\, allowing millions of listeners to find each other and themselves -in the process.

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: Spring Tapas - Online
DESCRIPTION:Tapas is not a set of recipes; it is a way of life in Spain. Tapas means sharing food and time at the table. We eat tapas together with friends\, colleagues\, and loved ones; never alone. Tapas humbly celebrates the end of a working day or a long week. Sharing tapas means “we did it” and are together for the most important part of life: bonding. \nIn this class\, we’ll celebrate connection with an emphasis on spring\, when some of Camila’s favorite produce is at its best. Springtime brings freshness and color and is a time for tenderness and opening up. The simple act of shelling fresh peas together will slow us down in the tapas style of Spain. \nJoin Chef Camila as she streams from her home kitchen in Barcelona. Registrants will have access to a high-quality class video to rewatch as many times as they wish! Click here to see a sample video of what to expect in class. \nMENU \nEsqueixada: Catalan Salt Cod Salad with Tomato\, Onion\, and Olives \nFava Beans with Serrano Ham (ham is optional) \nGrilled Asparagus with Romesco Sauce  \nFresh Pea Montadito with Whipped Ricotta \nPa amb Tomaquet: Catalan Bread with Tomato
