PLAY ON THE PLAZA!

CANCELLED DUE TO RAIN

The LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District continues its efforts to solve the Bay Area water crisis by planning events to be rained on.

The April 13 “Play on the Plaza”  is being cancelled due to the forecasts for rain and wind.  We are doing our best to inform vendors, flaggers, workers, and volunteers as rapidly as possible, and thank everyone for their understanding. 

See you next month. 

Upcoming Play:
May 11: Impact Play

Join us for Play on the Plaza every second Saturday of the month!  A free community event that’s designed to ignite some spark in your life!  Each month we feature a different local bay area BDSM, Kink, Leather or LGBTQ group right on Eagle Plaza!  

Flagging is our April play theme! Special Guest Liam Ocean from Flagging in the Park will host and enthrall us with their art of spinning colorful flags!  Bring your flags and join the fun, some flags will be available for anyone learning. Liam will be answering questions and helping those who want to learn or improve their skills of this master craft! Join us as we take to the streets to create lively, colorful visuals and help us create the energy of life, creativity and unabashed joy in who we are by flagging and dancing to the beats of our amazing DJ Paul Goodyear.

Name the New Park After Rachele Sullivan

• A new park is being built at 11th and Natoma Streets, half a block from the LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District.
• The Rec and Parks Department solicited community input into naming the park, and we proposed that the park be named after Rachele Sullivan, one of the founders of our Cultural District and a prominent figure in SOMA’s Filipino community.
• Other names were proposed, and a preliminary survey narrowed the options down to six.
• A run-off survey is now in process.  Please vote in this survey. 
• We encourage you to vote for Rachele Sullivan, a woman who proudly embodied the intersection of the queer, leather, Filipino, Indigenous, and disabled communities.
• We need you to take this survey even if you took the earlier one.
• Thanks!

Voting is Open!

The candidates were exposed at our Nominations Reveal Party on March 16.
Check out some fun event pictures. 
See the nominees, and vote for your favs.

Voting is now open!  Voting is open until 5 pm on Thursday, April 25. Votes are $1 apiece, benefiting the LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District, helping to keep SOMA Kinky and Queer! All voting is online, and unlimited! Vote early!  Vote often!  Standings released on Wednesdays.
