This year, LA-based disco-pop duo Poolside will rock the—er—museum. They’ll be followed by what are sure to be killer sets by Chromeo and—get this—renowned chef and DJ (who knew?) Hubert Keller of Fleur de Lys. Plus, you can boogie on down while snacking on bites from SF’s Tacolicious and Garden Creamery and sipping on signature cocktails.
Even better? Proceeds from the event will help support SFMOMA’s stellar exhibitions and education programs, so you can feel good about getting your party on.
