ArtLaunch 2011
Celebrating 36 years of SF Open Studios

San Francisco comes alive with art this October as ArtSpan presents its 36th Annual SF Open Studios - the oldest and largest event of its kind in the country - now with an added fifth weekend. From Dogpatch to Fort Mason, the Mission to Ocean Beach, each weekend features new neighborhoods to explore as more than 900 emerging and established artists open their studios to show and sell their work during the month-long event. It's an unrivaled opportunity for art patrons, collectors, and admirers to connect one on one with artists, get a glimpse of the working artist's life, and to find their next true art love.

SF Open Studios kicks off with ArtLaunch, a special exhibition preview event and fundraising party on September 29, 2011 from 6:30 to 9:30PM. ArtLaunch features more than 400 works of art for sale by SF Open Studios Artists, delectable fare by Thomas John Events, live dj, and open bar with the "Green Fairy" - a Pernod Absinthe cocktail enjoyed by Piscasso! Creative cocktail attire encouraged. Tickets are $25-$60 and can be purchased by visiting www.artspan.org or http://artlaunch2011.eventbrite.com/.

* Please note that this event is 21 and over.
