SoFA SATURDAYS IN MAY

“After the success of last month’s online SoFA Music Festival, organizer Fil Maresca says he plans to keep the good vibes going with SoFA Saturdays, another virtual venture that will have a “soft opening” this week and continue for the next three Saturdays.

The idea’s pretty easy: Different channels of entertainment like you’d find in San Jose’s arty South First Area will be available from 6 to 9 p.m. at www.sofasaturdays.com. To recreate the SoFA experience, Maresca said, visitors will be encouraged to pick up take-out food and drinks from downtown restaurants and then sit back at home to see bands, hear poetry, and tour art gallery — or just hang out with other people.

“One of the best parts of SoFA Music Festival were the hangout channels where people just got to see each other and talk,” Maresca said. ‘The heart of SoFA has always been about the people, so we want to continue that and keep everyone connected with each other.’”
