Excelsior Community Food Pantry offers free groceries to families facing food insecurity through a weekly, rain-or-shine distribution held entirely outdoors. Volunteers are needed on an ongoing basis, and people of all ages are welcome, including children with supervision. Individuals and small groups can simply show up, while groups of about seven or more should arrange a date in advance by emailing foodpantry@missionbaycc.org. Arrive a little early for introductions and orientation. The pantry operates in the parking lot of the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living, and drivers are asked to park on the street rather than in the facility lots. Dress for the weather. Those tracking service hours can bring a paper form to be signed by a Captain after clean-up, or use the pilot volunteer platform to record hours digitally.

The Human vs. AI Film Festival presents traditionally created and AI-generated short films on the same screen without revealing which is which. The format encourages audiences to respond to each piece on its own terms, with the chance that an AI-made film could move viewers more than one crafted by humans. Seating is first come, first served, and free tickets do not guarantee entry, so early arrival is recommended or opt for reserved tickets. The setting is distinctive as well, since the Delancey Street Screening Room seldom opens to the public. It has been reported that Robin Williams once screened footage there in private, and many people pass by without realizing it is there.

Set within the San Francisco Botanical Garden, this outdoor 5Rhythms session invites exploration of inner landscapes through movement in relationship with the natural elements. The journey roots in Earth, kindles the heat of Fire, releases into the waves of Water, lifts into the lightness of Air, and settles into the spacious quiet of Ether and Stillness. The practice is freeform and personal, offering a way to move the body and settle the mind at the same time while reconnecting with the wisdom and healing power of dance. All levels are welcome. There are no steps to memorize and no prior experience is required. Participants can bring curiosity, an open mind, friends, a water bottle, and a blanket. Music will be provided to support a unique dance for each person in a welcoming meadow setting. Facilitation is led by Certified 5Rhythms teachers Alessandro Moruzzi and Vehllia Tranne, accredited by 5RTA to teach Waves and Heartbeat. Their backgrounds include dance, music, theater, performance, healing, spiritual practices, and shamanism. Inspired by nature and ancestral connection, they offer intuitive guidance and a supportive space for transformation. They have taught internationally, helped cultivate a vibrant 5Rhythms community in San Francisco, and have held an ongoing Sunday Sweat Your Prayers in the city since 2014.

Trained since childhood and certified at a master level in Ballroom and Latin, Lorans brings 15 years of dedicated bachata study across traditional, urban, modern, sensual, and fusion styles, along with extensive training in salsa forms including LA, New York, Afro, Cuban, and Caleña. Having studied the sensual style in Spain, the instructor shares a personalized methodology designed to accelerate learning. Participants can choose between two tracks. The beginner and intermediate option focuses on solidifying fundamentals such as spins, body isolations, footwork, lead and follow, and dancing in different positions. You will learn a cohesive combination that ties core skills together, with a rotating focus so there is always something new to explore. The intermediate and advanced option is designed for dancers seeking higher-level challenges with complex patterns, refined styling, controlled spins, precise isolations, and a strong partner connection. This track emphasizes creative transitions that flow between sensual movements, footwork, and tricks, along with deeper musicality to help you select movements that suit each moment. Expect a sophisticated combo that blends styles in response to the music. The format provides individual assessment and tailored coaching within a group setting. The approach prioritizes strong foundations before introducing advanced material, using a clear system aimed at rapid progress. Dancers can expect noticeable growth, greater confidence, and practical skills for social dance and performance.

A two-stop evening centers the queer Deaf community and signing allies. It begins with a casual Queer ASL social at Epicurean Trader Coffee shop in the Castro for signers of various experience levels and all ages, then shifts a few blocks to Detour, a restaurant and arcade bar, for the main gathering focused on queer Deaf attendees. Signing allies who are conversational or above are welcome there, including fluent CODAs and interpreters. The night may continue with bar hopping, and the group sometimes ends up at Mix Bar. Those arriving later may want to confirm the current location, since the group may move on or wrap up early. This gathering is designed for Deaf queer people and queer hearing friends, family, and allies who are conversationally fluent. It is not intended for beginning ASL students at levels 1 or 2. Accessibility and environment notes for Detour: food and drinks are available, with some vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options, though the kitchen is not gluten free and may not be suitable for those with celiac. Entry and the two designated accessible restrooms do not require steps, but reaching the bathrooms can be difficult due to arcade games and crowds. Larger power chairs, wide manual chairs, and other mobility devices with a big footprint may find the route challenging. Blind attendees, especially cane users, should be aware of potential trip or bump hazards from game elements that can protrude at different heights. Seating is mostly high, backless bar stools, with a limited number of lower padded stools along the accessible side of the bar when available. Lighting varies and can include flashing effects that may be hard for those with seizure risk or sensory sensitivities. The floor is smooth, level concrete, though spacing between tables and chairs can be tight in places. The group typically sits near the front for easier access, but table and chair heights may not be ideal for wheelchair users who want to use the tabletop comfortably. Masks are not required. Airflow is often decent thanks to high ceilings and doors that are kept open when weather allows. The venue sits on a noticeable incline, which some manual wheelchair users may find strenuous without assistance or power support. The event is co-hosted within the Deaf queer community. Questions can be directed to the co-hosts Allyn or Burnie, with video messages better sent to Burnie due to Allyn’s visual impairment. For later-night plans, Ervin serves as the after-party point person. Both the social and the venue are family friendly earlier in the evening, though younger children may enjoy having small bills or coins for games and might prefer attending with another family, since most participants are older teens and adults.

Sweat Your Prayers is a 5Rhythms gathering in San Francisco that invites participants to move, breathe, sweat, and reconnect through embodied practice. Since 2014, this ongoing community session has welcomed dancers of every background and experience level. The session unfolds through the five rhythms of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness. Music leads the way while verbal guidance stays light, allowing each person to explore what is alive within themselves and in community. There are no steps to memorize and no choreography to follow, so there is truly no way to do it wrong. Rooted in 5Rhythms, the movement method developed by Gabrielle Roth, the practice encourages freedom, expression, release, and presence through dance. The simple act of sweating becomes a form of offering and prayer, a pathway to deeper connection. Expect an inclusive, beginner friendly space where people of all levels and all bodies dance barefoot and move at their own pace with minimal instruction. Bring water, comfortable clothes you can move in, and your curiosity. You are welcome to invite a friend. Plan to arrive a few minutes early to settle in. Doors close shortly after the opening begins to support the container and the uninterrupted flow of the practice. If you anticipate arriving late, please reach out in advance if possible. No prior dance experience is required and all bodies are welcome.
