On March 4th, the Academy of Friends had their annual Gala where they live screened the 2018 Academy Awards. The theme for this year was "the circus" and intermingled with the illustrious guests on the top floor of the AMC Metreon were contortionists, clowns, unicylcers, and life-sized marionettes. The food wasn't too bad either. As stated on their website, the purpose of the gala was to "raise funds, award donations, and encourage volunteerism that benefit a diverse set of HIV/AIDS organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area".

We had a busy month at Archive this past March. Check out our recent posts for photos from the events we had the pleasure of covering.

The 54th Imperial Coronation took place this past Saturday (2/24/2018). Great performances, fantastic sense of community, and appearances from Imperial Council royalty from all around the world! And of course Archive Productions was there taping every minute of it. All hail the new King and Queen of the Imperial Council!

"Keep Mission St. for La Misión", a chant from the "Save Mission St." March on 1/25/2018. Featuring a gathering of local Mission St. residents trying to fight the gentrification of one of SF's most rich and diverse streets. Footage taken by Archive Productions Inc.

"Queer and Disabled", another informative lecture at the GLBT History Museum on 1 /24/2018. Interesting insight from one of the panelists: "I tend to believe that all sex involving people with disabilities is inherently queer because it breaks so many boundaries regardless of the gender, sexual identity of the people involved".
