Love is in the air this week. Whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Day, or not celebrating at all, there are plenty of things to do that tickle your fancy, especially if you’ve haven’t even made plans yet.

We’ve got comedy shows, craft activities, dance parties, and maybe that pillow fight. Whether you’re trying to live, laugh, love, or cry, here are 10 things to do in the City by the Bay this week.

1. Bark at Spark's "Puppy Love," Spark Social SF (Feb. 10) Bring your dog to hang out or adopt one at the Mission Bay venue. Pet-centric vendors will be selling treats, toys, and accessories. There will also be some DIY Valentine craft stations and plenty of photo-ops.

2. Valentine’s Craft & Learn: Lover’s Eye, SF’s Museum of the Eye (Feb. 10-11) Get crafty for Valentine’s Day by learning about and then making “eye miniature portraits,” an 18th-century fad in which participants wore jewelry with paintings of their loved ones’ eyes on them. One of the Bay’s most unique museums, Truhlsen-Marmor Museum of the Eye, is hosting workshops Saturday and Sunday afternoons, but spots are limited.
