Get in the Shark Tank and Watch the San Jose Sharks 2019-2020 Season
While some deplore the shorter days, the oncoming darkness of winter, the bitter winds that blow across the bay now that October is about to change into November and summer is officially no more than a wistful memory, others of us are feeling our blood begin to stir as once again the chance to experience some memorable sporting events becomes increasingly frequent.
Food, Wine, Film: Or, The 9th Annual Napa Valley Film Festival
Film, food, and fine wine. A perfect evening! A marvelous lifestyle! Or, if you happen to be in Napa Valley this November, a great film festival featuring screenings, tastings, seminars, classes, and a chance to be surrounded by others who love cinema and cuisine as much as you do.
One Weekend, Four Dance Parties: The Annual Sundance Stompede
Well, summer is most definitely over in San Francisco, and autumn is here to remind us that time moves forward in an unbreakable stream. It can be hard to retain the inner fire that comes along with longer days and warmer nights as we watch the flowers fade and the deciduous trees change color. Now we begin to search for ways to stay warm, to keep the light alive, and to keep the desolation so present in winter at bay. If you’re like me, than one of the best ways to stave off inner darkness is by moving your body. And there are few better ways to do this than through dancing!
Sixth Annual Tiburon Taps Beer Festival
Tiburon is one of those sorts of places that you need to see to believe. Located across the bay from San Francisco, it is home to some of the most gorgeous views of the SF skyline, the bay, and the hills shrouded in a distant fog. If you’ve never been, and if you are a fan of delicious handcrafted beers, then we have the perfect event for you to take care of these two things at the same time: the Tiburon Taps Beer Festival!
Not all Spirits are Spooky: The 9th Annual Craft Spirits Carnival
When craft beer really burst onto the scene in the early 2000’s, the beverage world was turned upside down by the introduction of something lovely and unexpected into a world that had been, up until that point, fairly predictable and droll. Instead of needing to choose between Bud Light and Corona, beer lovers were provided with a wealth of stunning options, leading to a massive surge in craft brewers, which led to even more exciting things to try, which led to even more people deciding to go and brew beer.
Gee-Wiz, It’s the Cheese Biz at the 5th Annual San Francisco Cheese Fest 2019
It is true that when people think of cheese they think of places such as Wisconsin or France. With the amount of history located in each of these places that revolves specifically around cheese, it is not surprising that they get the bulk of the credit for bringing the tasty, complex goodness of cheese to the world. HOWEVER: would it surprise you to learn that California is also a top competitor when it comes to places to find amazing cheese? Regardless of your answer to that question, you will not want to miss the exciting adventure that is headed your way this September at the Fifth Annual San Francisco Cheese Fest.
The Future of Humanity: Exploring the Environment at the 9th Annual Green Film Festival 20q9
As concerns about our rapidly changing ecosystem become increasingly mainstream, more and more individuals are turning towards various artistic enterprises in order to try and process, discuss, and change what is happening to our planet. Certainly, many books continue to emerge on the topic, but sometimes it can feel completely overwhelming to know where to begin when it comes to keeping up with the latest science on global warming and the various things that people are trying to do in order to stop its most disastrous effects.
2019 Autumn Moon Festival
The approach of autumn means that numerous representatives from many, many cultures will be preparing to celebrate with a harvest festival of some sort.

What we’re going to focus on today is one of the absolute most classic autumnal events that the Bay Area has to offer: the Autumn Moon Festival.

Oktoberfest by the Bay 2019
It doesn’t take Nostradamus to know that fall is already breathing on the slowing heels of summer. Even though we in the Bay Area know a gentler transition between seasons, and even though we don’t know the dramatic colors of New England or the sudden bitterness in the wind of the Midwest, we do see the leaves change and upturn the collars on our coats just like everyone else.
