Levi’s invites the women of San Francisco to come check out their “Wear What Fits” event to pick up a free pair of new Levi’s Curve ID jeans (while supplies last), and get a little fashion inspiration and fun along the way. Here’s how it works: · Stop by the event on Friday, September 17th · Bring something that doesn’t fit into your life anymore – it can be an old handbag or jeans, an ex-boyfriend’s T-shirt, an antique lamp – really anything that no longer fits into your life · Donate the item that doesn’t fit and you’ll get something that does - a free new pair of custom fit Levi’s Curve ID jeans A Levi’s denim fit specialists personally fit each woman in her perfect pair of Levi’s Curve ID jeans. Throughout the day, women are invited to hang out and listen to great music from DJs and performers including Zooey Deschanel & M.Ward’s band, She & Him. There will also be local food and fun activities like t-shirt screen printing and sketch artists. Admission and one pair of Levi’s Curve ID denim is free to the first 1,000 guests who exchange something that does not fit. All exchanged items will be donated to Goodwill.

The Artist in Residence Program at Recology San Francisco will host an exhibition and reception for current artists-in-residence Val Britton and Zachary Royer Scholz on Friday, September 17th, from 5-9pm and Saturday, September 18th, from 1-5pm. This exhibition will be the culmination of four months of work by Britton and Scholz who have scavenged materials from the dump to make art and promote recycling and reuse. An exhibition of paintings and drawings by student artist Tanner Griepentrog will be held concurrently at 401 Tunnel Avenue. Work by all artists will be viewable by appointment the week of September 20th.

Tommy Wiseau is the mastermind (writer/director/lead actor) behind the SF cult flick The Room, which screens monthly at the Red Vic.
