LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District Present: Holiday Market

December 14 @ 12:00 pm PST

The LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District is thrilled to announce the return of our annual Holiday Market!
Join us for a day of holiday cheer with local queer vendors, performances by Twisted Windows, a chance to get your picture with Naughty Santa and devious pup elves, and so much more!

Special Event:

Twisted Windows will bring a wintery whirl of sensually subversive, distinctly daring, and festively fabulous performance art to the SOMArts stage, featuring Shay Tiziano, Nikita Velour, DanceHallDyke, Lolo Ramone, Dual Demons, Alicia T-Corn, KleineVosje, Eliza, Dangerbones, & Angel.

Holiday Photos with Santa!
We’ll even have a few playful elf pups roaming spread joy and mischief!

Our Mission

The LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District’s vision is to rejoice, commemorate, and protect the
contributions of our predecessors, contemporaries, and successors rooted in the Leather and LGBTQ Cultural District and its diverse and marginalized peoples. United, we preserve, enhance, and advocate for the continuity and vitality of the Kinky and Queer communities of San Francisco’s Leather and LGBTQ Cultural District.

What do we do?

Keeping SOMA Kinky and Queer by lobbying city hall to allow bathhouses, installing public art like murals, activating community artists and performers, continuing economic development through the Entrepreneur Program, and producing walking tours.
