TUESDAY, APRIL 11

SCIENCE COMEDY: Hosts Allen Saakyan and Kevin Whittinghill aim to tickle and to teach with their series Eureka! Science Comedy, and this week they've got UC Berkeley physicist Holger Müller in the hot seat. Joining the group are comedians Joey Avery and Karinda Dobbins. They'll be asking all the hard questions, like "are lasers cool?" and "lol is climate change even real?" PianoFight, 144 Taylor Street, 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., $10-15

BEER RELEASE: Presidio-based brewers Fort Point Beer Company are adding a new, limited release IPA to their arsenal, and they're pouring it for the first time this year at the new, semi-outdoor cocktail bar in Hayes Valley, Anina, which the team behind next door Brass Tacks opened last month. Who knows how cold it will be, but Anina's got some indoor seating too, and it's worth checking out the spot if you haven't been by yet. Anina, 482 Hayes Street, 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., free admission

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 12

READING FROM 'VIOLENT BORDERS': City Lights Books hosts Reece Jones, in conversation with Ingrid Rojas Contreras, discussing his 2016 book Violent Borders: Refugees ad the Right to Move. In the last decade, an estimated forty thousand people died attempting to cross international borders, this professor asserts. "This book is a valuable antidote to the xenophobia sweeping the privileged nations of the Northern Hemisphere," Darwin Bond Graham writes in the East Bay Express. 7 p.m., City Lights Booksellers, 261 Columbus Avenue, free.

THURSDAY, APRIL 13

LECTURE SERIES AT MINNESOTA STREET PROJECT: For the Larry Sultan Visiting Artist Program, a free public lecture series honoring the late CCA faculty member, Minnesota Street Project hosts Hank Willis Thomas, a badass conceptual photo artist.

GUY FIERI, THE MUSICAL: That's insane, as frosted tip food icon Guy Fieri might say. After two sold-out performances, Flavor of Death: A Guy Fieri Musical is back, pitting "the good people of San Francisco" against "an evil force working to thwart truth, science and the rule of law." Show runs 60 minutes and rinks are allowed in the theater. The musical comes from San Francisco comedy troupe Funny But Mean, who are equal parts of each. Shelton Theater, 533 Sutter Street, 8 p.m. $20 at the door

MITSKI AT THE FILLMORE: When he was putting together his guide to the best shows during this Coachella period of California touring, "Fauxchella," SFist music writer Adrian Spinelli said "go ahead and file this as Fauxchella’s best all-around bill" thanks to performances from Mitski, Kadhja Bonet, Steady Holiday. Judging by recorded music from all these artists, he's right. The Fillmore, 1805 Geary Boulevard, 7 p.m. doors, 8 p.m. show, $22.50

FRIDAY, APRIL 14

All proceeds go to Dyke March. El Rio, 3158 Mission Street, 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.

GOATCHELLA: CUESA's 9th Annual Goat Festival, perhaps after adopting the nickname Goatchella, has grown so large you need tickets, at least to pet goats, but you can view them without one. Expect animal welfare talks, goat cheese tastings, goat merch, and much more. Ferry Building, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., $0-5

OUTDOOR SCREENING OF 20th CENTURY WOMEN: Postponed last week due to rain, this is back on! 20th Century Women is a fairly delightful movie written and directed by Mike Mills and starring Annette Bening in an incredible performance, and they're showing it outside at Proxy on a big screen — like a free drive in that you can walk or bike to. PROXY, 432 Octavia Street, 7 p.m. "doors" to claim a spot, 7:45 screening, free

SUNDAY, APRIL 16

CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL GRAND PARADE: Celebrating 50 years in Northern California, this weekend's Cherry Blossom Grand Parade will feature performers from Japan and the Bay Area along the parade route from Civic Center at 1 p.m. up Polk Street to Post Street to Japantown at Post and Fillmore Streets. Come out and see one of the most splendid, long-running Japanese traditions on the West Coast. Civic Center to Japantown, 1 to 3 p.m., free

SFFILM CLOSING NIGHT: To wrap SFFilm's 60th festival, organizers are screening an original commission that sounds fairly crazy, with a new score from composer Jacob Garchik played by the Kronos Quartet. Guy Maddin and co-directors Evan Johnson and Galen Johnson took Bay Area footage that wasn't in Vertigo to recreate Vertigo, or a "a “parallel-universe version,” of the Hitchcock classic. Castro Theatre, 429 Castro Street, 7 p.m. $50 film only, $90 film and afterparty at Mezzanine
