— reasons not to reorganise the hall cupboard.
✨ Somewhere in Nevada, seventy thousand people are eating dust. You have options, and not one of them requires goggles or antibiotics. ✨
Everything worth leaving the house for this weekend, from San Francisco out to Oakland, Berkeley, Marin, the Peninsula, the South Bay and wine country. Pulled from a dozen event listings, venue calendars and ticket sites so you don't have to check them all yourself. Filter by day, area, what you're into, what it costs, or put in your zip and say how far you'll actually travel.
Museums don't run on a schedule, so they're here instead of on the board. Two shows close during the weekend — the Asian Art Museum's Harsono ends Monday, and the Matisse at SFMOMA has one week left after that.
Labor Day pulls everything into destination festivals, so the street fairs are thin this weekend and stacked into the three that follow. Mostly free, mostly outdoors, and this time the East Bay is properly represented.
