1AM SF is not only an art gallery celebrating urban and street art but also an establishment committed to conveying the positive aspects of this misunderstood form of art. The classes are aimed to give an outlet for people to express themselves creatively and raise awareness to the urban arts. The four classes offered at 1AM are Stencil, Art of Graffiti "Sketching Letters", Toy Modification, and the Letter Style and Mural Production. We give students first hand experience in the world of street and urban art by teaching them the history, culture, art styles of graffiti and having them paint a mural on one of the busiest streets of San Francisco. 1AM, short for First Amendment, encourages people to freely share their thoughts and ideas through the medium of art in a responsible and innovative way. Lily Black can be described in many words, but ordinary is most definitely not one of them. His love for customizing toys has made him one of our resident artist as well as our teacher for our Toy Modification class. In his class, Lily reviews the history of toy modification, demonstrates basic and complex toy model techniques, and guides students to design and customize a Kidrobot Mini Munny (provided by 1AM). All basic materials and safety equipment are provided. -occurs every month -Each class consists of three sessions. -The class is $70/person. -All ages are welcome. **Lily also offers a free toy modification demonstration at the gallery every month. The next FREE demonstration is Saturday, September 19 from 4-6pm.
