Vendors Sought for Foster City Community Center

For immediate release: February 24, 2026

Contact: Tiffany Oren, Recreation Manager, (650) 286-3395, toren@fostercity.org 

Prospective vendors interested in operating the café, ceramic studio or early education classroom in the new Foster City Community Center are encouraged to apply today. Visit https://www.fostercity.org/parksrec/page/community-center-vendor-applications for more information about opportunities to operate in the new facility, which is currently under construction and expected to open this summer.

Those interested in café, ceramics and early education operations with additional questions should respond to the Request for Information (RFI) by Monday, March 2. All questions and responses will be compiled and posted as an addendum on Wednesday, March 4, on the applicable RFI page. The City will not provide individual responses to questions. The deadline for submitting a proposal is Friday, March 20, at 5 p.m. All RFI and application information is available under the respective vendor tab on the City’s website.

Additionally, the City is looking for enthusiastic individuals to serve as class instructors in the new facility. Those interested should provide qualifications, a proposed program approach, and submit a resume in the class instructors tab on the application website. The instructor application is separate and distinct from the RFI process, and not subject to the same application deadlines.

The Foster City Community Center is currently under construction in Leo Ryan Park, with the facility anticipated to open this summer. Visit https://rebuildtherec.org/ to learn more about the project and sign up for the project newsletter, which provides monthly progress updates. For more information about the RFI submittal process, email recreation@fostercity.org or call (650) 286-3380.
