On November 9th, 2025, Kaleido SF hosted its second-ever LIVE SPACES, an immersive art and fashion showcase celebrating self-expression, transformation, and community. Held at the iconic Phoenix Hotel in the heart of San Francisco’s Tenderloin, this multi-sensory event brought together over 550 guests to experience bold runway collections, interactive gallery installations, and live music in a vibrant indoor-outdoor space.

The show featured 40+ emerging designers and artists, many presenting their work for the first time. From fashion collections reimagining cultural heritage to conceptual art exploring identity and memory, the event gave a platform to creatives who live double lives—balancing 9–5s with 5–9 passions.

This event also served as a fundraiser for Kidus School, an Ethiopian nonprofit expanding access to education. In partnership with KACE Fruit Tea, guests enjoyed a Kaleido signature cocktail while supporting a great cause.
