The swell chaps over at Curbed SF have a poll going on about what to name the district that SFist brought to your attention yesterday. You need to vote, people! Rock it, as a matter of fact. Otherwise, TODO Magazine will get to christen each and every block of this city. We like the name "Sweet Pea Place," but Curbed readers have suggested the following: "SOMISSPO," "The Potrission," "Mitrero," "The Submission," or "MIS-O-PO" as......

Sorry for the delay in getting SFist Tonight out. This afternoon was steeped in several fun-filled return trips to CompUSA, dealing with customer service. So much fun was had, folks, that we felt like putting our face through a window several times. Aaanyway, a few late-in-the-evening things to do at places where you can get as fucked-up as you want: -- Trannyshack's Pre-Folsom Street Fair Party: "Addicted to Porn": Famous SF midnight drag show,......

Since August 2006, artist Nicole Wintermeyer's blog Arthead SF has been providing a forum for artists throughout the Bay Area and beyond to fully describe the meaning behind their work. We think this is a great idea since we often feel more drawn to a piece of artwork when we know the artist's intentions.
Tonight, Oakland's Swarm Gallery presents a group exhibition of artists featured in Arthead, and each piece is accompanied by the artist's description. Swarm is also celebrating their one-year anniversary this evening.
While you're at Swarm, have a seat in Tao Urban's "Reading Room" installation, and feel free to touch the art! Arthead's show runs through April 27, and Reading Room runs through May 6. Swarm is located at Jack London Square, just a few blocks from the Alameda/Oakland ferry from San Francisco.
