11:00 am: Create In Community Arts Classes (in-person)11:00 am: Create In Community Arts Classes (in-person) – Where: Lighthouse HQ, 1155 Market, San Francisco 11th floor craft room Let's gather together in the 11th floor art space at LightHouse San Francisco at 1155 Market to explore a different art process, style or media each month while connecting with fellow creatives. These are exploratory, process-oriented classes that invite you to work at whatever level you are, be it first timer to expert. This March, we will create small but mighty as we make postcard sized and smaller art works to gift and trade through Free Little Art Galleries (FLAGs) in the Bay Area. This thriving art movement makes art accessible to many people but may be challenging for our community to access since the little galleries (much like the little libraries) are located randomly and spread out. A FLAG in Oakland will trade with us so we can experience the joy of gifting culture with like-minded strangers. RSVP not required. If it’s your first time or if you have questions, contact Maia Scott at MScott@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7608. 8:00 pm: Reel Escape Audio Description Club for Teens and Young Adults: Stranger Things (online)8:00 pm: Reel Escape Audio Description Club for Teens and Young Adults: Stranger Things (online) – Are you looking for a thrilling escape into the world of science fiction and mystery?
