Reminder: Marga Gomez in Not Getting Any Younger at the Marsh Berkeley @ Sat Jun 30 5pm - 6pm (Queer Things)

Marga Gomez in Not Getting Any Younger at the Marsh Berkeley

After a successful run at The Marsh San Francisco, Marga Gomez's "Not Getting Any Younger" is moving to The Marsh Berkeley. Marga Gomez spills the beans in her 9th solo show Not Getting Any Younger, a comedy about lies, vanity, and the good old days. Marga's coming of age story begins in a dairy cow's boudoir in the Bronx and hurtles towards a murder' at the 'Forever 21' department store. Lauded for her honesty as an out gay comedian before it was safe to do so, she has actually been a master of deception in other ways. Now the cagey monologist unburdens herself and brings her riskiest revelation to the stage because Marga Gomez is Not Getting Any Younger.

This show is 90 minutes with one intermission and is intended for audiences aged 17 and up.

Reminder: THIS IS WHAT [YOU] WANT at the Center for Sex and Culture @ Sat Jun 30 5pm - 11pm (Queer Things)

THIS IS WHAT [YOU] WANT at the Center for Sex and Culture

THIS IS WHAT [YOU] WANT
New to the festival this year is a participatory exploration in which the audience is invited to explore and express their own desires.

This will take place June 30 from 5-11pm also at the Center for Sex and Culture, 1349 Mission Street, SF

reserve tickets: http://www.eventbrite.com/event/3690857454
http://theoffcenter.org

This piece is an invitation. For the audience of this is what you want 2012. An audience bombarded and inspired by the experience of other peoples work on desires over the week.

What is it that YOU want? Do you know? Does it matter?

What happens when you share it with others?

What sort of people do you want to share it with? (lover? friend? priest? teacher? student?)

What if you confessed a fake desire? Or…someone else's desire?

What is the value of speaking what you desire?

How valuable is your desire to you? Can you profit from speaking it?

What if you had to pay to say it to others? Would you say it with passion? What if you said it indifferently? What would you do if your desire could be fulfilled?

This is What YOU Want is a piece that provides us with a framework to explore these and other questions around an economy of desire.

As the culmination of TIWIW2012, Center or Sex and Culture hosts a participatory exploration conceived by Tessa Wills and Directed by TT Baum, developed with assistance from artists and Bay Area luminaries: Kirk Read, Cayenne, Pele, Syd Blaekovitch, Sadie Lune, Praney, Christraper, Brontez, Ariadne, Syd Nova, Elizabeth McSturdy, SiouxsieQ, Ian Waisler, Minax, Annie Danger, Captain Snowden, and Carol Queen.

Tickets are $15 – $25 (with "appointment times" attached) this exploration is an hour long, and it will be presented in three stages. You can say a desire to the charger of your choosing, rememeber that if you ask, maybe you will get what you desire… or not. And maybe it will answer some of the questions above. Or not. Make it risky, make it profound. Or not!

We are expecting it to be many things, especially; fun.

For a five hour performance exploration in unchartered territory between sensual practices and art practices, between performance and happening, embodying the theme of "This Is What I Want 2012″, and making the site of that research of the economy of desire culminate in your personal experience.

June 30th at the CSC 5pm till 11pm. Only 100 tickets for this event.

Reminder: Wilde Chats at Sweet Inspirations @ Sat Jun 30 10:30am - 11:30am (Queer Things)

Wilde Chats at Sweet Inspirations

Haven't had a really good meaningful conversation lately? Then come and explore Wilde Chats, one of The Community Initiative's most popular activities. Meeting at a variety of San Francisco's distinctive neighborhood cafes, a large diverse group of gay men explores topics and issues that are important to us as gay men. A great way to make new friends on a level that doesn't usually happen in bars or clubs.

Wilde Chats is a loosely structured community-driven group get together every Saturday morning to discuss specific issues affecting us as gay men and our gay community. The group is lead following a "Socratic" model; rather than talk about solutions and answers to problems, the idea is to expand on the days topic by analyzing it and breaking it up into other questions. The discussions typically focus on the hidden/unspoken assumptions, generalities and concepts that we as gay men make, and the differences that our various points of reference imply. Wilde Chats are currently taking place at the times and locations listed below.

Wilde Chats meets 10:30AM - 12:00PM Saturdays at Sweet Inspirations, 2239 Market Street between Sanchez and Noe.

Reminder: Mugsy’s pop-up wine bar at El Rio @ Fri Jun 29 5pm - 8pm (Queer Things)

Mugsy's pop-up wine bar at El Rio

Mugsy's pop-up wine bar at El Rio - JUNE 29 (5-8+)

Wine from Mexican-American and family-owned Ceja Vineyards РOl̩!

Friday, June 29th stroll into El Rio and you'll find a surprise wine bar (within a bar) serving stellar wine on the patio. Focusing on women, urban and people of color, Mugsy serves 4 varieties and costs under $10 a glass.

On a field trip to Napa we fell under the charms of Amelia Morán Ceja, president and co-owner of Ceja Vineyards. Amelia is the kind of powerhouse, cook, winemaker, youTube show producer who makes one tired.

What's most impressive is that she appears to perform all these incredible feats while heartily enjoying her family's estate-made wine from Carneros in Napa.

Amelia poured and drank alongside us. And for Mugsy's we found a refreshing 2008 Chardonnay to crow about and the scary-drinkable and smooth "Vino de Casa," a red blend of Pinot Noir and Syrah.

The president of Ceja Vineyards, Amelia met her future husband harvesting merlot grapes. Together they have built a legacy. Twice named "Best boutique winery in Napa and Sonoma." Ceja not only has an inspirational story of Mexican-American immigrants turned upscale wine producers, they make phenomenal wine.

And they drink it.

You'll have a chance to drink it too at Mugsy's pop-up wine bar at El Rio. Join us for these wines and two others June 29th 5-8+ on the patio.

Finite batch of free oysters at 5:30. Homemade piadina (Italian flatbread sandwiches) from La Piada Randagia pairs nicely and starts around 6-ish.

For more info and updates: http://mugsywinebar.tumblr.com/

Mexican-American, family-made wine in the Mission. How often does that happen? At your favorite dive bar, better yet.
