San Francisco
Artcards brings you to art October 27, 2009

Weekly Outlook

I just returned from the East Coast, and I must admit being a bit discombobulated; however, check the website in the upcoming days for more events as I catch up in time for November openings. 

As for this week, Thursday holds some enticing sound art events at The Contemporary Jewish Museum and Queen's Nails

Friday, Taro Hattori and Seth Lower have good looking shows opening at Swarm Gallery and The Lab, respectively.

On Saturday, SFAI has an interesting show, or if you are feeling like a good old fashioned grab bag head to Hunter's Point for their open studios.  And, have a Happy Halloween!
