What makes The Academy SF special

The Academy is about connection rather than clubbing. The programme is shaped together with organisations, local businesses and members, from yoga and drawing nights to theme parties. It is more an event space than a walk-in bar, so it is worth checking the calendar.

Programme

There are weekly classes such as yoga and Drink & Draw, plus theme parties, for example at Halloween. Many dates are run in cooperation with non-profit organisations.
