SFMOMA Museum Day + Lunch in SoMa 🎨

📅 UPDATE: We moved this to Saturday, Nov 14 at 1 PM! A conflict came up on my end, sorry for the shuffle. If the new time doesn't work for you, no worries, just update your RSVP. Hope to see you there! Hey hey, let's spend a Saturday afternoon at SFMOMA together and then grab a late lunch in SoMa 🎨 SFMOMA has seven floors of modern and contemporary art, from big names like Frida Kahlo, Rothko, Warhol and Calder to photography, sculpture and huge installations. There's also an outdoor sculpture terrace and a living wall, so there's plenty to see even if you're not an "art person." It's a great low key way to meet people, since there's always something to talk about. We'll be doing general admission only, so no special exhibition tickets needed. How we'll meet up: 1\. RSVP here so I know who's coming 2\. Get a general admission ticket on sfmoma\.org or at the front desk when you arrive\. It's free for SFMOMA members and anyone 18 and under 3\. 1:00 PM meet at the main entrance on Third Street\. I'll post a pic of where I'm standing in the event chat 4\. Quick intros\, then we head in together 5\. Explore the floors for about an hour and a half\. Wander solo or stick with the group 6\. 2:45 PM regroup in the lobby\, then optional late lunch or coffee nearby in SoMa / Yerba Buena 🚇 Getting there: SFMOMA is at 151 Third St. Montgomery St BART is about a 5 minute walk. Parking in SoMa is pricey, so transit or carpooling is the move. Come solo or bring a friend, lots of people come to these on their own. See you there 👋

Golden Gate Park Swing Dance & Picnic

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/QV9bbzZf1bksuq62uk7v **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** Hey vintage jazz fans, Grab your most comfortable dancing shoes and join me this morning to catch the fresh breeze off the promenade while moving to some classic big band tunes. We'll spend the first bit of the morning using the app for quick, paired chats to meet fellow swing lovers, then pick a small group to actually jump into the beginner lesson and share a picnic on the grass together. During the first hour, the Gist IRL app takes the guesswork out of mingling by setting up short, focused conversations for us. It's a fantastic way to figure out who shares your passion for vintage rhythms and outdoor dancing. Once the rounds wrap up, you'll pick the people you vibed with most. From there, we'll gather into small groups and head straight to the promenade for the free beginner swing dance lesson, followed by lounging on the grass with whatever snacks you brought. By the end of the hour, you are laughing through swing footwork and sharing picnic snacks on the lawn with a fun new crew. Whether these folks become your regular Sunday swing dance crew or it just turns out to be a beautifully sunny morning out, I promise it's going to be a blast. The Plan: - 11:00AM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone. - 11:05AM - 12:25PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you for focused chats. Find out who shares your love for vintage jazz, swing music, and outdoor dancing. - 12:25PM+: Form Groups & head over to the promenade to join the swing dance lesson together. Reconnect with your favorite matches, form groups of 4-6, and head over to the promenade to join the swing dance lesson together — your group leaves together today. Instead of just talking about wanting to try swing dancing but never actually hitting the dance floor together, we're going to dive right in to take a swing dance lesson and picnic. You might just walk away with your go-to group for future swing dance socials, live jazz nights, and park picnics. To keep things super easy, you can keep in touch with everyone you met directly through the app later on, completely skipping the awkwardness of asking for personal phone numbers. I'm so ready to enjoy the morning sunshine and some great music with you all on the dance floor. A few favorite spots nearby: Lindy in the Park - This long-running Sunday gathering on the JFK Promenade features a vibrant open-air dance floor and a free noon beginner swing lesson open to everyone. de Young Cafe - Located right off the concourse, this cafe offers fresh seasonal salads, sandwiches, and espresso drinks that you can grab to go or enjoy on the serene sculpture garden patio.

The Yellow Submarine - An old-school Inner Sunset staple on Irving Street, this cash-only corner shop specializes in hearty, toasted sub sandwiches wrapped up and ready for an afternoon in the park. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/QV9bbzZf1bksuq62uk7v **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**

Third Thursdays City Neighborhood Coffee and Conversation

Coffee, Pups & New Friends

Hey loves! Join us for Coffee, Pups & New Friends around Lake Merritt. Dogs are the easiest icebreakers in the world, so we're making them the theme. Bring your pup (or borrow the excuse to meet everyone else's) and leave with a new friend. No dog? No problem, you're completely welcome. We meet at 10 AM at Motivat Coffee Roasters (formerly Slojoy), 1528 Webster St, near 19th St Oakland BART. Grab a coffee, then we walk the flat 3.4-mile loop around the lake together at an easy pace. Plan for about 2.5 hours, and anyone who wants to keep hanging out can join an optional brunch at Grand Lake Kitchen after. Dogs stay leashed, and bring water for both of you. Wear layers and come as you are. Getting there: Taking BART: Exit at 19th St. Oakland BART (dogs in carriers). Motivat Coffee Roasters (1528 Webster St, formerly Slojoy) is 2 blocks away. Driving and parking: Street meters on Webster and Harrison St are FREE on Sundays until 12:00 PM! Just snap a photo of your meter's ParkMobile zone number when you park at 10:00 AM so you can add time from your phone at noon ($3/hr) while we're out on the lake. For all-day lot parking, 1520 Harrison St is one block over. As always in Oakland, please leave zero bags or visible items in your car. See you and your furry plus-ones out there!
