Town Hall Held March 15

Our first Town Hall of 2026 took place Sunday, March 15, at the Folsom Street Community Center. We had a great turnout and got lots of great feedback which will influence our coming year and go to the City.

Executive Director Bob Goldfarb and District Manager Cal Callahan reviewed the accomplishments since our last Town Hall in June 2025. These included the installation of seven commemorative sidewalk plaques, LeatherWalk, the return of the Ringold Anniversary Block Party, the Kinky Holiday Market, the establishment of a SOMA entertainment zone, the introduction of the Kink & Draw program, and the expansion of our popular Gear Swap n Shop.

Bob led a conversation touching on subjects like the proposed ban on smoking on bar patios, prioritization of programs as the District faces budget cuts, and how people get their information on programs and events. The feedback helps guide our efforts in the coming year as well as influencing City policies.

Join us for the next one: Saturday, June 6, 1pm to 3pm, at the Folsom Community Center, 1286 Folsom Street.
