Town Hall
Town Hall: Housing and the Arts
Artists, tenants and small-business owners share the same squeeze. An open forum on what affordability actually looks like in North Beach — and who gets to stay.
Events
Music, fine art and Town Hall forums, produced in and for North Beach. Most of it is free. All of it is open to everyone.
On the calendar
Upcoming
Music
Grant Avenue Jazz Sessions
Three sets of local players working the standards and the strange stuff, in the room where the neighborhood has argued about music for sixty years.
Fine art
North Beach Open Studios
Two days, one neighborhood, forty working studios with the doors open. Walk the hill, meet the people making the work, buy something directly from them.
Fine art
Poetry in the Park
An open mic on the grass under Saints Peter and Paul. Bring a poem, bring a blanket, bring somebody who has never read out loud before.
Town Hall
Town Hall: Keeping the Lights On
Corner stores, family restaurants and galleries in conversation with the people who write the rules. What would actually help?
Fine art
Winter Mural Unveiling
Six months of community painting comes down off the scaffolding. Music, food, and the artists talking through every panel.
The record
Already happened
Music
Beat Night Benefit
A benefit for the mural fund — readings, a horn section, and a room packed past the legal limit.
Town Hall
Town Hall: Who Owns the Sidewalk?
Parklets, permits, buskers and shared streets. A working session on public space that produced the proposal now in front of the city.
