Travel on Muni between two library locations in one day to learn about how to use Muni safely and meet San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) operators and staff.

For children ages 6–18. Youth under the age of 8 must be accompanied by an adult. Muni rides are free for youth 18 years and younger. Adults traveling with youth for this special program will also get to ride for free between the libraries. 

Start your day at Richmond Library where you’ll meet with SFMTA operators and staff to learn tips and tricks for using Muni. Pick up a special transit scavenger hunt to fill out on our group public transit trip to Glen Park Library where you will create an original predesigned screen print. Please bring your own t-shirt or tote bag if you would like to screen print on those.  You’ll also get to design your own commemorative button. Earn SFMTA prizes if you find the most items in the scavenger hunt.

After everyone has created their crafts, participants can leave on their own or return to Richmond Library together.

2:00 – 3:00 PM: Meet SFMTA operators and staff at Richmond Library

4:00 PM: Create your own screen print and button at Glen Park Library

These events are in partnership with the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) in hopes of building community with young riders and their families to expand their knowledge of how the public transportation system works and the people who make the City move. Help us cultivate a culture of care and healthy respect for our city, the public spaces that many of our peers and community members depend on and ground us with a knowledge that the people who work in transportation want to get us to their destinations safely and efficiently. Gaining intimate knowledge of these spaces and people, these learning days hope to foster equity in young ones' ability to access public transportation, ensure safety of all riders, employees, and people within the city, and introduce young people to the adults and infrastructure that help move culture forward.
