Drinks will be served. Marc Capelle, a native San Franciscan composer and producer, will provide live music. Admission is freebut RSVP is requested.
Rex Ray (1956-2015) was a beloved San Francisco artist recognized worldwide for his unique and prolific body of paintings and works on paper. He was a major force in the Bay Area's art, literary, and queer activist communities. The exhibition presents artwork never previously displayed, including large-scale canvases and collages.
Bill Ward’s paintings and drawings are meditations on the objects, people, and environments that shape our daily lives. Ward’s paintings create complex, layered scenes featuring the everyday objects in his studio, curiosities, and attractions in his own Oakland neighborhood. His paintings radiate with energy and explore both the real and the imagined.
