Join the SFMTA Photo Archive at 5pm in City Hall for an in-depth tour of the exhibit, "Moving San Francisco: Views from the SFMTA Photo Archive 1903-Now." During this informal tour, we will learn more about the people and stories behind selected photos from San Francisco transit history from 1903 to 2025.

Following the tour will be a screening at 6pm in the Main Library. Funny, scary, or just wonderfully wacky, San Francisco’s iconic cable cars play a variety of roles in this program of carefully curated clips from films including "Yours, Mine, and Ours," "The Rock," "Doctor Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine," and "What’s Up, Doc?" Presented by the San Francisco Public Library and Jim Van Buskirk.
