Here/Now 2026

SFMade is hosting our 4th Annual Here/Now event on May 20, 2026 at Standard Deviant Brewing in San Francisco's historic Dogpatch neighborhood at Pier 70, Building 12.

As our signature event, we are celebrating local manufacturing and welcoming new businesses into our network, bringing together the community of supporters for an evening of connection.

Our theme this year is “Resilience” reflecting the tenacity and strength of the local manufacturing sector. San Francisco and the Bay Area makers and manufacturers have faced unprecedented challenges, uncertainties and volatility across many of the last several years. Yet, they continue to adapt, innovate, and create economic and workforce opportunities for our community. They continue to prove that San Francisco is a place where things are MADE.

Join us for an evening featuring:

• Drink tickets + small bites from Rainbow Grocery, Gus’s Community Market, and Luke’s Local

• Networking with SFMade’s manufacturing community, partners, and supporters

• Keynote remarks from Anne Taupier, Executive Director of the Office of Economic and Workforce Development (OEWD), as well as Allison Banks from Heath Ceramics

• An exhibition of new products from emerging manufacturers: Flora Gelateria, Good Junk, Harmony Art Shop, Kiara Naturals, Lilaque, OASIIS, Olivia’s Tanghulu, and Ray’s Pickled Eggs

• The announcement of the 2026 Manufacturer of the Year and Emerging Manufacturer of the Year
