A

4th Annual North Beach ArtWalk
Presented by the
Art & Culture Committee
An annual weekend of art, poetry, music and performance showcased in multiple North Beach venues, happening this year on Saturday and Sunday, September 24th & 25th, 2011.
$3 All Day Parking with validation at Live Worms Gallery 10am-6pm during the event when you park at Golden Gateway Garage, 250 Clay Street. Shuttles run every 15 minutes and drop you at Grant and Broadway. Walking is also an option with North Beach just a 15 minute stroll away.
Download a PDF of the 2011 ArtWalk map here so you can plan your “art walk” on the 24th or 25th. Coffee at an outdoor cafe in North Beach, a great art show at Live Worms, multiple venues filled with art and artists, an Italian dinner to finish off the day. Sounds just about perfect!

Take a look at the artists and venues
of North Beach ArtWalk 2010:
Check out ‘First Fridays’ in North Beach
(P.S. First Friday is NOT the North Beach ArtWalk)
Arata Fine Art Gallery, Focus Gallery, Craig Fonarow Photography, The Emerald Tablet, Make Hang Gallery, Gallery 454 and Modern Eden have joined the established Live Worms Gallery, Macchiarini Creative Design, Sweetie’s Art Bar and Canessa Gallery in the past year or so. All offer an eclectic mix of art in all disciplines, showcasing both established and emerging artists. Also joining the party is Cykel on Union Street with a regular installation of art curated by the graphic artist owners.
Sadly, despite the ‘renaissance’ of art in North Beach, Gallery 28 has closed as of August 15th. The shows were well attended and the openings crowded, good energy generated by proprietor Ethel Jimenez, so we were all surprised.
North Beach art galleries invite neighbors and visitors to join them for an open house and extended hours on the “First Friday” of every month. Each gallery offers its own unique venue. Come enjoy refreshments, music, poetry and old fashioned North Beach hospitality!
