In response to the controversy that SFist wrote about earlier this week regarding a security guard who told a lesbian couple that they couldn’t hold hands while viewing the current Seeing Gertrude Stein exhibit, the museum has swiftly and brilliantly organized a Hand Holding Day, which will take place this Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The event will coincide with the previously scheduled LGBT Family Morning of Stein, which is happening from 9 a.m. to Noon and consists of kid-focused art-making activities, followed by a great line-up of performances by the SF Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band, the Voices Lesbian Choral Ensemble, and Lesbian/Gay Chorus of San Francisco.

just another reason why i love living in san francisco.
About me
we stopped in every passing placeto watch the world move
faster than we do
watch it pass with our eyes closed
the way we usually choose to
--idlewild, in remote part/scottish fiction
these are some of the things that made me slow down, take a moment, smile or sigh or laugh or scream or somehow shut off the autopilot so that i might really take notice of the world, or at least one small part of it, before continuing on my way.
things that caught my attention, when i let them.
