Tricycle Music Fest Rolls Around Town Brring, Brring, Brring! Bring your crew, it’s rolling back through: our shiny 11th Tricycle Music Fest boasts great music and tunes. The Library is excited to share a fabulous line up of artists, including the Grammy-winning Lucky Band, sharing their new band name, look and release, Buenos Diaz. Grammy-nominated Alphabet Rockers bring The Love, their new release, and some of their favorites. Returning favorite Jazzy Ash and the Leaping Lizards adds New Orleans flair to our city by the bay. Every weekend in October and at different libraries, Tricycle Music Fest is a series that rolls all through the town. For more information, visit sfpl.org/tricycle.

Litcrawl at the Mission Branch Library In 2018, Lisa Brown and Daniel Handler generously funded a writer’s residency that allowed Friends of San Francisco Public Library to house five San Francisco writers in its offices. The Friends have created an invaluable “vacancy”, a writer’s studio where writers can work for free all year. Visit the Mission Branch Library during Lit Crawl to hear these writers read the exciting material they have worked on over the course of their residencies. Featuring Chaney Kwak (Fiction), Kathleen McClung (Poetry), Susie Nadler (Young Adult Fiction), K-Fai Steele (Children’s Books), and with special guest: Barbara Berman (Poetry).
