Hate run clubs? Good. You’re in the right place. “Love” run clubs? Good you’re also in the right place ( even tho I know you be lying😝) This is a low-effort walking club for people who want steps without the suffering. We walk, we yap, we “touch grass”… and somehow still end up talking about AI. No pace..no pressure Just vibes, light movement, and earning a sweet treat after (non-negotiable). Low energy. High main character. Slightly performative…because obviously. 🙄💅 Bring your friends, your mom, your dogs (highly encouraged🐶) The plan is simple: Meeting Spot: https://maps.app.goo.gl/81Yo4UNiseGL2aC8A?g_st=ic We will meet at 10am and start walking at 10:15 am sharp! We then walk until Warming Hut Park Store and then turn around and walk back to the meeting spot. Then we usually end up by going to the Farmer’s Market at Fort Mason to grab a much needed bite. 🤗 Join our community to stay in the loop: https://partiful.com/co/HOf3EWr51vIqvIgClpw2

hi friends. I am hosting my first art show, “the unraveling: collage stories of deconstructing history” on saturday, july 18th from 5-8 pm. this show has been a year in the making and I can’t wait to finally share this project with everyone I love. i’ve spent so many hours of processing current world events, our history, and how art can shape what type of community we want to build for future generations. it’s been a year sourcing magazines and books that outline politics, environmental issues, social movements, and race in the US. there will be art displayed, prints to purchase, beverages to drink, appetizers to consume, and really lovely people to meet! feel free to drop by for a few minutes or stay a while and meet new friends. this is an opportunity for friends and strangers to come together to have discussions on how we can support each other and show up for our communities. feel free to bring folks! open invite. :) can’t wait to share with you all and see so many people who have inspired me in this journey.

A Creative workshop under the redwoods: Lessons from the land in attention

Sun at 10:30am · Oakland

***update 6/24: yall we are BLOWN away!! All the spots were filled overnight. You’re welcome to join the waitlist in case someone can’t attend. To hear about future events, feel free to stayed tuned on instagram at @jayna_milan and @noahjohnsonart** 💞 🥲 It's summer in the bay and we're here to hug some redwoods and build community! Calling all nature and creativity lovers ✨🌿 Anyone is welcome, no artistic experience is required. Seeking to deepen your connection to the land, creativity, awe and wonder this season? Our small group will meet under the redwoods to practice paying deep attention — to the more-than-human that surrounds us, to creative energy (and blocks!) that arise, and what we can learn in the shade of new and old friends. We don’t have any of the answers, but we’ll guide us in broadly exploring: what can the natural world teach us about play and creative process? What is stirred and re-enchanted when we slow down and pay deep attention to the earth’s seasons and our own internal creative cycles? We’ll walk 10-15 min from the trailhead into a gorgeous grove and get into some: - Guided creative exercises and prompts — solo and partnered - Quiet meditative forest bathing time & poetry from some of our favorite human teachers (think Robin Wall Kimmerer, Willow Defebaugh, adrienne marie brown) - Accessible awareness practices to get our bodies and minds and hearts in the forest! - Redwood tea & treats <3 We'll be following a zine we co-created for this event, which everyone will be able to fill out and take home! ---------- Max 15 ppl to keep it cozy - $15 per person. To help us keep track of registrations, pls Venmo & respond “going” on the partiful invite ✨ Guided by Jayna Milan, an artist, writer, and therapist (IG: @jayna_milan) and Noah Johnson, a bay area landscape artist, historical-ecology geek, and expert wanderer (IG: @noahjohnsonart). ---------- *What should I bring?* - We'll bring a zine book handcrafted for this very event along with colored pencils, pens, and pencils! So no need to bring art supplies, unless you prefer your own. - A pad or blanket - whatever you need to be decently comfortable on the forest floor. We'll base camp after a 10 min walk from the trailhead, but there will then be the opportunity for solo exploration from there. *Are we making a finished art piece?* Not particularly! While we'll have several guided practices and will be filling out the zine as we go. We're exploring process > product. *Is this a therapy group?* Great question! Nope! While Jayna is a therapist, this is not a therapy group :) Please note, given the uneven terrain, the landscape is not ADA accessible.

Dasein AI Film Festival

Next Thu at 6pm · San Francisco

Being at the Edge of Presence The first Dasein AI Film Festival explored a precise axis. This gathering opens the field. For our second screening, we present a new selection of films drawn from recent submissions received from filmmakers around the world. This time, the focus shifts. Not human. Not machine. But being itself. Inspired by Martin Heidegger's concept of Dasein — the awareness of being, of existing in relation to the world — this screening moves beyond categories and into presence. The films presented here approach existence from different angles: memory, identity, consciousness, perception, mortality, connection, and the mystery of simply being. This is a new curation. Less restricted. More open. Not centered on technology, but on existence. Not on answers, but on the condition of being. ⸻ PROGRAM FORMAT • Curated short film screening (10–15 films) • New international submissions • Screening runtime: 90 minutes • Audience Award • If votes align, multiple winners may be announced ⸻ A shared experience. A space to witness, reflect, and remain present. Followed by conversation, connection, and the continuation of the Dasein Creative Circle. ⸻ 📍 Upcider 1160 Polk St, Floor 2 San Francisco, CA 🗓 July 14, 2026 🕕 Screening: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM 🎟 $13 Admission More: www.daseinfilmfestival.com — Dasein Creative Circle A year-round space for filmmakers, artists, technologists, writers, philosophers, and thinkers to meet, connect, and co-evolve.

Run time: 1 hr 37 min We’re diving into Wong Kar-wai’s Chungking Express, a 90s cinematic masterpiece of urban yearning and kinetic romance.

How do we manage to feel so isolated while constantly bumping shoulders with millions of strangers, and can a bizarre daily routine actually cure a broken heart? Open invite! All are welcome :) Thank you Mox for hosting us! Mox SF (moxsf.com) is a coworking space for change makers and do-gooders for causes like AI Safety, Animal Welfare, and more!

QUEER PICTURE DAY

Sun, Aug 16 at 2pm · Oakland

QUEER PICTURE DAY 💌 by OMG Visuals I’ve had this idea in my mind for years and I’m finally bringing it to life. A lot of queer people never really got the chance to fully express ourselves as our fully realized selves growing up. So I wanted to create a Picture Day for us now. A space to document who we are, who we’ve become, and the versions of ourselves we dreamed about for so long. Come in your best whatever-that-means-to-you. Dress up, be soft, be bold, be sexy, be playful, be fully yourself. I want to capture the queer joy we carry and preserve this moment in time together. This will be a community portrait event with a backdrop, music, candid moments, and eventually a yearbook-style archive with “Most Likely To…” superlatives and community pages spotlighting the people and spaces that shape us. My dream is to make this a yearly series — something we can return to every year to see who we are becoming. We’ll be at my favorite bar in downtown Oakland during Pride with a DJ, good energy, beautiful people, and room to connect. Come ready to take portraits, meet new people, and be part of something special.
