Fiestas Fridas San Francisco celebrates Frida Kahlo’s affection and connection to San Francisco. Frida and Diego Rivera were married- the second time- in San Francisco on December 8, 1940. December 8th is also Diego Rivera’s birthday.
Join us on December 8th for A Holiday Bazaar with (He)ART, Frida y mas!
