<a href="https://luma.com/futuretables-sf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">RESERVE YOUR SEAT</a>​Future Tables is a high-fidelity civic laboratory ritual hosted at SFMOMA. This activation invites 10 people in Arts and Culture alongside 10 people working in the Tech sector for an evening of structured, non-transactional dialogue. Amidst a shifting urban landscape, Future Tables bridges the gap between the city’s "old soul" and its "new engine" to explore a shared civic future rooted in care, creativity, and collective imagination.
<h2>​What to Expect</h2>
​The vibe is elegant, design-forward, and deeply collaborative. This is not a standard networking dinner; it is an active co-creation experience where every guest is an author of the night's outcome.
​• The Spectrum Reveal: A live physical installation where your pre-submitted "City Color" digital photos are transformed into tangible prints to anchor your evening's journey.
​• The Interactive History: A witty, curated look at the historical parallels where SF's art and tech lineages have danced together in the past.
​• "The Civic Cipher" Dialogue: Structured, prompt-driven table conversations mapped out over a multi-course dinner.
​• Interactive Art Co-Creation: Throughout the entire evening, you will utilize physical art elements right at the table to visually log, process, and lock your insights directly into your premium keepsake booklet.
​• Curated Food &amp; Drink: A multi-course narrative dinner paired with botanical shrubs and local craft beers.
​The Chef: Chef Haejin Chun—widely known by her moniker Big Bad Wolf—has been covered by Thrillist, Eater, KQED, The San Francisco Chronicle, and Forbes for her innovative culinary pop-ups and unique approach to building community through the universal language of breaking bread. As a Korean American who grew up in California with a degree in Fine Art from CCA, a two-year stint of culinary study in Paris, and a rebel spirit, she is no stranger to crafting beautiful, engaging, locally sourced, unconventional food experiences infused with memorable cultural flavor and personal details. A community organizer, educator, activist, author, and Libra, she recently added “author” to her byline with her first published cookbook through Insight Editions. We are incredibly honored to have the Maestra herself crafting the culinary journey for this exclusive experience! <h2>About the Future of Us Festival</h2>
​Launching on America's 250th anniversary, the inaugural Future of Us festival is a 10-day celebration of civic imagination and possibility. We're turning community-sourced, expert-crafted visions of the future into art, storytelling, and participatory experiences. With 100+ events spanning every corner of the city (floral labyrinths, speculative future worlds, dance parties with a purpose, and neighborhood meet-ups), it's a living exploration of what a more creative and generative civic culture could feel like. Organized around four themes (Green Futures, Social Futures, Science &amp; Tech Futures, and Media Futures), Future of Us is breaking down the barriers between art, ideas, and each other, and everyone is invited to co-imagine what comes next.

This is accomplished through no-cost school and community programs for over 300 Oakland youth each year. Performing Company members from Prescott, where the program began, perform and make appearances at as many as 40 Bay Area events each year.

Personal Training with Unlimited DEXA and VO2 Max

Custom Fit

Most training programs run on guesswork. Custom Fit replaces it with measurement. At its San Francisco studios, Personal Training and Partner Training memberships include unlimited DEXA body-composition scans and VO2 max testing — diagnostics usually sold one scan at a time or reserved for specialized clinics. Custom Fit members can test as often as they train. The reasoning is straightforward. A DEXA scan measures fat, lean muscle, and bone density with clinical precision. A VO2 max test measures the body's maximum oxygen uptake, one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular fitness and long-term health. Run those tests on a regular cadence and a member can see exactly what is changing, where, and whether a program is working — rather than relying on the scale or the mirror. That is the idea behind Custom Fit's positioning: not a gym, a performance lab. Every program is built from a member's measured body composition and cardiovascular capacity, then adjusted as the data moves. The goal is to eliminate the guesswork that defines most fitness routines and to treat training as something you can verify. The model also brings longevity diagnostics that usually live in concierge medicine into a routine training week. Body composition and cardiovascular capacity are central markers of how well a person is aging, and regular testing keeps those numbers visible rather than treating them as an occasional, expensive add-on. Custom Fit operates in Hayes Valley (323 Octavia Street), on Market Street (1844 Market), and with a Downtown San Francisco location on Battery Street (570 Battery) opening soon. Personal Training, Partner Training, and select memberships include the testing. More information is available at customfitsf.com.

Are there hidden accessibility barriers on your website?

Accessibility in Practice

Does your website look great but people still drop off before buying, booking, or signing up? Most small business owners don’t realize accessibility might be the reason. Your site might “pass” an automated scan or look fine visually, but still be impossible to use for people navigating by keyboard, screen reader, or other assistive tech. Automated tools don’t test whether someone can actually fill out a form, complete a purchase, book a service, or make a donation. That’s where accessibility issues tend to hide. In fact, WebAIM’s 2025 Million report found that 94.8% of the top 1,000,000 home pages had detectable Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) failures. That’s where I come in. I run hands-on accessibility reviews that go beyond automated tools. I test your site like a real user would and translate the findings into clear, prioritized fixes you can implement or hand to your developer or designer. Ways to work together: 1. Full Website Accessibility Audit (deep review across your site) 2. Homepage-Only Mini Audit (fast check of your most-visited page) 3. PDF Accessibility Conversion (make PDFs usable with screen readers) 4. Alt Text Writing Packages (product photos, homepage images, posts) 5. Email Signature Accessibility Review (fix a common, overlooked barrier) 6. Social Media Accessibility Quick Review (graphics, captions, links, video basics) and more! What you’ll get (always): 1. Plain-language results 2. A prioritized fix list 3. Practical guidance you can use right away Our approach Transparent pricing • Fast turnaround • WCAG-aligned • ADA/Section 508–informed • Bay Area + remote clients If your site is hard to use, it’s hard to grow. Prioritizing accessibility helps more people access your content, services, and opportunities. contact@accessibilityinpractice.com
