San Francisco is a hotbed for lowbrow art so I created this group to explore local lowbrow happenings, and to meet other enthusiasts. Viewing gallery openings and hops are a staple at galleries like White Walls, The Shooting Gallery, 111 Minna, Electric Works, 1:AM Gallery and Lower Haters to name a few. Also films relating to lowbrow culture, viewing murals/graffiti and related events will be posted here. Open to suggestions or a heads up about other events, maybe a live art night at a cafe …

Hello to All the Creative Outlaws, In December there will be three classes held the first three Wednesdays, and then the studio will close it's doors. After an amazing two year run, the Creative Outlaw Arts Painting Class is taking a rest. I have greatly enjoyed everyone's presence and creativity at the studio and it has been a wonderful honor to explore self expression and push creative boundaries. What a wild ride it has been! I plan to pursue some of my personal creativity for the n …

There will be time for free drawing at each meetup, but mostly there are themes fo …

This group will be for anyone that wants to learn Filipino/Chinese martial arts in a relaxed, informal, and slow atmosphere. Instead of focusing on the usual fast way of training I want to take a slower, almost Tai Chi flavored, approach to the training. The particular mix of martial arts that I was taught loans itself well to moving that way and it would be a great way to start the week! We will focus on gentle stretching, one weapon form, and light work with a partner. Sticks will be supplied …

What's the difference between a snapshot, a commercial image and a Fine Art photograph? The answer, of course, is subjective and very much "in the eyes" (and minds) of the photographer and individuals viewing the work. This group will consider what makes photography rather unique among the Visual Arts. Light, composition, intent, and technique are a short list of topics we'll explore, both in the studio and on location. Take a look at our past and upcoming meetings and workshops, and consider jo …

Welcome!

I like unique events that aren't stuffy and a little off the beaten path. I am interested in poetry readings, lectures, book signings, theater, art openings, experimental music, and other related events. I'm hoping to find a few like minded folks in the Bay Area who would like to attend these events on occasion with me! I am looking for cheap stuff to do so you won't find any opera or symphony events here (unless they're free!) So many artists out there, it's great to support your local art scen …
