Treasure Island Flea: “Hawaii in July”
The Treasure Island Flea returns this month to the Great Lawn, along the Avenue of the Palms in San Francisco. The Flea, for those of you who missed our last entry on the subject, takes place on the last weekend of every month, and usually revolves around some sort of unique theme or series of events that ties the whole thing together. In June, the Flea featured a retro circus as well as a beard competition. This month, from the 30th to the 31st, the Flea is back, and it’s a good time to break out your swimsuits and flip-flops because the theme for this weekend is Hawaii in July.
Art Night Kick-Off in San Francisco
Art and San Francisco go together like ketchup and hotdogs. For art lovers looking for a fix, there are the obvious places like the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and SFMoMA, and then there are the scads of galleries that are impossible to avoid (and why would you want to?) as well as the numerous festivals, parties, and celebrations that are art centered. One can never have too much of a thing this good, and so it is to our delight that this year there is a new event that will be bringing together all varieties of artistic endeavor. On Friday, July 29th, from 5:00pm until 9:00pm at the UN Plaza (at the intersection of Market and Hyde Streets), Art Night will be kicking off its first ever season.

For the 5th straight year, the Obtainium Cup will be scuffled over in Vallejo, giving participants and spectators both the time of their lives, and challenging the age-old idiom “there is nothing new under the sun.”
