A beloved Father’s Day weekend tradition, SF’s Native Contemporary Arts Festival returns to Yerba Buena Gardens for its 27th year. The festival brings together contemporary indigenous artists, performers, and cultural leaders for a free, full day of celebration. Expect visual arts, live performances, crafts, and community programming — all centered on honoring the creativity and living cultures of America’s indigenous peoples. Admission is completely free, making it one of the more accessible cultural events of the summer.
