5 minutesStunning, sleek and spacey architecture will have you gawking before you’ve even entered BAMPFA’s doors on Center Street in Berkeley; the building’s exterior itself is a massive and much-talked about piece of art. Once inside, you can score a seat in the Barbro Osher Theater for a film screening or explore expansive galleries that make up this 3-level focal point for contemporary art, movies and mingling. Free admission each first Thursday of every month.

Also a beginner gardener by day/performing songwriter by night, she feels grateful to live a life of extremes balancing plenty of contemplative silence with rocking out in a band. When not writing, she keeps her hands busy (and dirty) with old guitar strings and soil, and enjoys engaging with the Bay Area’s diverse environmental and cultural beauty. She loves puns to a fault and shamelessly laughs at her own jokes.
