Counting down to the official days of summer.  Even though the water continues to pour from the sky and snow dusts the dirt roads in Tahoe.  No matter.  Everyday is a good day to see some art. 

Start with this important event tonight:
"Arts Action At Oakland City Council" at Pro Arts Gallery in Oakland on Tuesday June 7, 5:30-8:30pm

Continue with:
Wednesday June 8th the Kadist Art Foundation is hosting Goldin+Senneby "After Microsoft". 

Consider, the new to SF but old to Chicago, HungryMan Gallery presentation: Russell Leng "Future Findings."

Or wander through the "COMPOUND: Annual Group Show & Open Studios" at Compound Gallery.

Encounter visual imagination: Julianne Wallace Sterling at Mercury 20 Gallery.

See behind the scenes at a grand ol' print house: "Magnolia Editions Open Studios/Framed art sale" at Magnolia Editions.

Correction: Southern Exposure has rescheduled the Cries of San Francisco Market Day to Saturday, June 11, 2011, 12-5 pm from the originally scheduled June 4th date due to an unseasonable storm.
