Queer Arts Resource (QAR) A <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> based site that has produced over 50 online<br />
exhibitions that suggest the range, depth, and importance of queer artistic expression. Until<br />
the recent advent of Queer Studies, the History of Art has omitted most material of direct<br />
relevance to lesbians and gays. Much has been suppressed, much has been lost due to neglect<br />
or censorship, and a great deal has simply been overlooked. QAR is expanding the range and<br />
depth of knowledge about contemporary and historical queer art, and making this information<br />
freely available on our website. Web: http://www.queer-arts.org [20 Feb 2010]<br />

Queer Things To Do in the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Area</strong> What I list is basically events that<br />
I'm interested in. It's not a complete list of gay-related events in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong>, nor are all<br />
these events strictly about promoting the homosexual agenda, whatever that is. I tend to list<br />
events that are about people creating local, direct live entertainment, especially as related to<br />
spoken word, rock, hip-hop, and electronic music, art events, and so on.<br />

Quesada Gardens Initiative We are building "community," connecting across our<br />
differences, and strengthening local systems in the <strong>Bay</strong>view Hunters Point Neighborhood of<br />
<strong>San</strong> <strong>Francisco</strong> through strategies that have emerged from the grassroots: community and<br />
backyard gardens, public art projects, events, and more. We are 100% resident-led, and believe<br />
that communities should be allowed to define themselves. We also believe that we all have a<br />
responsibility to be involved in the life of the street where we live. There is nothing more<br />
valuable than informal groups and social networks, especially in challenging times.<br />
