Mission Local reported this week on SCRAP’s move to 141 Industrial St. and its $7.5 million “SCRAP to the Future” capital campaign. The nonprofit is raising money to improve the larger, two-story space.
The organizer says the in-person event will include music, food, drinks and live-auction surprises. Mission Local’s roundup gave an earlier Saturday date, so this brief uses the Nov. 14 date on SCRAP’s own current listing. Check that listing before making plans.

Banksy Limitless, a ticketed exhibition of works by or tied to the street artist Banksy, opens Dec. 4 at 150 Powell St. in Union Square. The space is the former H&M store. Banksy has not authorized or endorsed the show. Organizers say most visitors spend about 75 minutes in the 25,000-square-foot space.
