About this Event

Join us on Saturday, March 15th, at 2 p.m., for a Rex Ray and Bill Ward exhibition tour. Griff Williams, founder of Gallery 16, will guide guests through an intimate walkthrough of the two exhibitions. Griff will discuss the history of Rex Ray's artwork and career and lead a conversation with artist Bill Ward, who will be present to talk about his own work currently on view.

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.
