This weekend is a great reminder of the resiliency of our Bay Area communities.
It’s been over 20 days since we have all been at home, and some of us have started talking to plants and hiding in the bathroom to get some space—but we persist. We keep creating and we keep showing up. So many of our musicians, performers, and creatives are pivoting to online platforms, and needless to say, they have a captive audience. So have a good laugh, get cozy on the couch with some great music, there is definitely plenty to choose from.
