We are thrilled to announce the 2025 PROXY Spring Series film festival of FREE outdoor cinema at the PROXY Outdoor Theater, starting on Friday, March 28th and running through Friday, April 25th!

Our film selection this Spring focuses on stories of everyday heroines: women forced out of their comfort zones, facing life’s difficulties with grace and determination, who through their journeys find completely new selves on the other side. In these dispiriting times, it is inspiring to share such compelling stories of compassion, grit, unconditional love and an uncompromising belief in our ability to create a better world together. We hope you come out, leave reality behind, and watch a film or two under the stars with us in the weeks ahead!

3.28 - Bird
4.04 - All We Imagine as Light
4.11 - Crossing
4.18 - Nocturnes
4.25 - FLOW

Lovingly curated and produced by Envelope, these FREE evening films at the PROXY Outdoor Theater begin 7:45 PM.

Come early to grab a good spot! Enjoy a Fort Point Beer Company beer, cider, or a new non-alcoholic Villager IPA or KSA Kölsch! We'll also have non-alcoholic tonics from Juice Shop and wine from Hayes Valley neighbor Fig & Thistle Apothecary and our friend Angel’s movie lovin' sake bar Millay. And make sure to pick up some hot dogs on your way to the show from Hayz Dog 🌭, just a block away from PROXY at 364 Hayes! Thank you to all of our sponsors and individual donors for helping to keep the films rolling at PROXY!

Outdoor adventure brand AETHER Apparel will be hosting a FREE RAFFLE GIVEAWAY before FLOW on 4.25! AETHER will be giving away the brand’s top selling poncho, branded cotton beanies, and discounts towards future purchases! Winners announced at 8:15PM!

Our second feature for the PEOPLE OF PROXY series is with Ngoc Luong, the owner and founder of , a local mom-and-pop shop curating a selection of rare and unique plants, pots, and San Francisco-themed gifts.

Cassiopea McDonald, PROXY's Program Director, interviewed Ngoc to hear more about how they got started, growing a business during the pandemic, and her experience at PROXY.

“We’ve built such a great space here together for people, especially during COVID when people needed outdoor space to unite. PROXY is holding movie nights, LUXFit with fitness, us with plants, and the coffee and juice shops.
It's a communal space, and if it does go away, it will be deeply missed. It’s a place for people to come out and take a break from working from home or indoors… Many people don’t have outdoor space, and we like to think people see us as their backyard….
I see a lot of families come here, young folks come here, kinda all walks of life. It’s just a great community!” - Ngoc Luong

Read the full interview at the link in the bio, and stop into TERRAVITA today! Say hi to Ngoc and her team, trade plant clippings, play chess, and shop their beautiful selection. Wednesday - Saturday 10 AM-6 PM, Sundays 10 AM-5 PM
