It is 76 years since the first ship was constructed at Marinship, the emergency shipyard, once located right in here in Sausalito. Over the years Liberty Ships have become an icon of WWII. We know a lot about the shipyards, the Liberty Ships and the people who built them but there is more to this story that is slipping away in time. Come and join Ranger Linda to find out some of the lesser known important facts that bring this incredible story alive again. Program will include a tour of the Marinship Exhibit located inside the Bay Model Visitor Center.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
