We're nearing the end of our contribution on Art Cards, after next week it will go dormant until someone else decides to take it on. So... if you know someone who likes that thing remind them to follow this thing please :)

The website is now roughly searchable, and there are a bunch of new additions to our map of new and newish Bay Area art spaces.

There are still a relatively large amount of things to see this week, as galleries open their last shows of the year this week or in early December. I highly recommend tonight's event at the Little Shamrock Bar in SF: the second 'Service Industries' exhibition with new work by Lindsay Tully (along with the joys of that particular little bar)

And finally, Good Job Bay Area! The LAB succeeded in making over 50k in its Kickstarter/telethon over the weekend (you can still donate here, Dena Beard has some ambitious plans and can use all the $ she can muster) which is a sign that our cynical little scene is still capable of optimism  now and then (see Sarah Hotchkiss' excellent column in KQED)
