Pride Week may be behind us, but there is still a ton of fun stuff to do this week in San Francisco.
Monday: Watch the World Cup at Anchor Public Taps
Swing by Anchor Public Taps this Monday (June 25), order a pint, and watch Iran take on Portugal on either the laser-projected backdrop or the 189-inch plasma TV.
Monday: Enjoy free comedy and cake
Tongue-in-cheek comedy sets from Bay Area comedians, free slices of cake and a Blondie’s Bar’s martini make for a pretty perfect Monday evening.
Tuesday: Support immigrant children and families
In Good Company and The Assembly are hosting a fundraiser on June 26 to help the humanitarian crisis at the border. The two-hour event will include drinks by Lorenza and SKYY Vodka and bites by The Cheese School as well as a lottery, raffle and silent auction. 100 percent of ticket sales and funds raised at the event will be donated to RAICES, which provides free and low-cost legal services to immigrant children, families, and refugees in Texas.
Tuesday: Become a pizza-eating champion
Barrel Proof Bar and Restaurant is hosting their first ever all-you-can-eat pizza and salad event. Wash it all down with $15 pitchers.
Wednesday: Watch a movie alfresco
Movies at the Pier will show Raiders of the Lost Ark in the Tangle at Historic Pier 45. Free popcorn and a beverage comes with your RSVP.
Thursday: Paint a masterpiece (and drink lots of wine)
This step-by-step class, taught by artist Damien Samuel, will result in your very own still life floral painting titled "Tulip Bouquet."
Thursday: Sample new ice cream flavors
Head to Salt and Straw's midnight launch party to sample brand new flavors like Sightglass Coffee Cashew Praline, Organic Roots Arbequina Olive Oil and many more.
Friday: Savor the summer season
The Summer Season of Friday Nights @ OMCA is back! That means the gardens are open for picnics, live music outside is back, gallery hours are open until 10pm, and the Off the Grid food truck market expands onto Oak Street.
Saturday: Meet cute animals
Swing by the Randall Museum in Corona Heights this Saturday, June 30 to get up close and personal with the museum’s animal ambassadors (lizards, owls, turtles and more), free of charge.
Saturday: Get a new perspective
Globetrotting photographer Mike Chen spent the better part of two years visiting 30 countries and photographing the daily activities of local people. This Saturday, June 30, he’ll be unveiling his aptly named new exhibit, “Perspective,” at SF’s Sketched gallery. All proceeds go to New Hope Foster Home and the Rohingya Refugee Crisis.
Sunday: Feel the jazz
Before the weekend comes to a close, be sure to stop by the Fillmore Jazz Festival (this is your last chance!). Enjoy live musical sets at multiple stages, browse eight blocks of fine art and crafts, and enjoy gourmet food and beverages at this week’s most on-beat event.
