The Lab is pleased to announce Winter Wunderkammer. This event marks our 15th annual Community Exhibition and Holiday Fundraiser (formerly The Post-Postcard Show). Artists, crafters, makers, writers, designers, and all community members are invited to contribute a set of small format multiples -- whether that be a series of hand-made objects, jewelry, zines, production run prints, or anything in-between. On December 9 and 10, we'll be opening our gallery as a cabinet of curiosities, inviting viewers and buyers to experience the richness of the local arts community. Guest DJs, warm spiced wine and yummy holiday treats will make this years showing and shopping experience festive and fun! This is an excellent opportunity for artists to have their work seen in the community and to help support The Lab as an essential arts organization in the San Francisco Bay Area. We believe that collecting engaging, quality, and beautiful works should be accessible to everyone.
Fixed-price work will be available for $1 to $50 (cash, checks, VISA or MasterCard accepted).
Enjoy music by Special Guest DJs: DJ Diaboliqqque, Gina Basso, Phengren Oswald, George Chen, and DEEP SEA CYSTING IN ODIN'S EYE POCKET.
Homemade treats by Delicatrocities, a nomadic offering of deliciously edible atrocities.
