"Believe it or not, the Castro is showing significant signs of recovery and renewal! Last Tuesday, Frameline Film Festival reopened the long-abandoned Hamburger Mary's location on Castro Street as a ticketing and information station for filmgoers. Among those we ran into were Bevan Dufty, Sister Roma, Suzanne Ford, and Nguyen Pham. The place looked amazingly pristine, even after such a long closure."
"Drop by this new outpost soon and pick up a calendar of the June 17-27 Frameline Film Festival, the oldest and largest international LGBTQ+ film festival in the world, returning to the Castro Theatre for its 50th Anniversary. You are sure to find something that appeals to you!"
"We were honored to attend an exclusive fundraiser for SF Pride in a Pacific Heights event room with sweeping views of the city, including both bridges. Robert Holgate and Marcy Adelman hosted and honored Roger Doughty after decades of leadership at Horizons Foundation. The attendees represented a tremendous cross-section of our generous community, including Dan Bernal, Ed Eishen, George Ridgely, Suzanne Ford, Tom LeNoble, Antonio Contreras, and Joel Goodrich."
"After a brief update on the progress of SF Pride towards this year's rapidly approaching celebration, guests were asked to reach deep and make a meaningful contribution to this nonprofit organization that brings so much to our city. Contrary to the beliefs of many, SF Pride does not just happen every June; it depends on our active engagement and financial support."
