Looking to Fall 2026:

As warm August nights come to an end, the days are getting shorter and the shadows cast by the late summer sun are getting longer. This shift in the earth reminds us too, that soon enough it will be time to gather and prepare for leaner months.With this in mind, we are thrilled to announce our Autumnal offering this year - BAWS is hosting our FREE annual SW Resource Fair!

We're putting on our hoe-veralls and bringing in the harvest! October 3rd, 1–5pm at 7th West in Oakland, 1255 7th Street, Oakland, CA 94607. RSVP here.

Stock up on material goods, services, support, information, and solidarity: nail and hair services, massage and acupuncture, clothing swap, legal support, hot food, groceries, healthcare, HIV & STI testing, sex worker art, a Digital Security workshop, and more!

It's all FREE, thanks to amazing community partners. Here's just a few you can expect to see at 7th West:

• Berkeley Free Clinic

• East Bay Food Not Bombs

• Oakland Gleaners

• Rogers and Rosewater

• Radically Fit

• Bay Area Legal Aid

• Justice At Last

• Freedom Community Clinic

• A Heaux Picnic

• MoneyBunnyNails

• Glowing Gate Acupuncture

• SW Art Club

This is a chance to fill your cup materially and spiritually, and for this community to gather in joy and resistance, by making sure we all have the means to thrive.

It’s an offering, an opening — to get what you need, for free, and be prepared for anything that may come your way in the coming season.

Allies are welcome to attend and support, but resources are intended for workers first. Hit the free RSVP link HERE, and we’ll see you for all the treats and none of the tricks this October!

>> Masks required and provided, COVID testing encouraged.
