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.

What to expect:

• Networking opportunities with SFMade’s manufacturing community

• An exhibition of new products from emerging manufacturers

• Special remarks from our guest speakers including Heath Ceramics

• An exclusive tour of Standard Deviant’s new brewing facility

• The announcement of 2026’s Manufacturer of the Year winner

• Locally made beverages from Standard Deviant Brewing
