at TBA SF Parking Lot (see times)
The Parking Lot Art Fair is pleased to announce its inaugural event, taking place in a parking lot in San Francisco on Saturday, May 2nd from 8 AM to 1 PM. On this Saturday morning over 100 artists will converge on a parking lot in San Francisco, not far from the stART Up Art Fair and Art Market, and set up their own independent projects to form the Parking Lot Art Fair. The Parking Lot Art Fair is a renegade, DIY, artist-driven fair/happening. This fair will ask for no entrance fee for participants or patrons, and take no percentage of artist profits. The location of this art fair will be announced the evening before the fair through Parking Lot Art Fair’s social media channels.

San Francisco has a history of attracting critical and diverse voices, and the Parking Lot Art Fair celebrates this spirit by providing artists a platform to exhibit their work to a wide audience of morning joggers, avid fair goers, and public space users. This fair will provide a space for diverse artistic practices, from tailgating performances to white cube exhibition spaces, the Parking Lot Art Fair presents a democratic platform for any and all artists of San Francisco. Artists, collectives, and projects who will participate include Diego Villalobos and Rene Esteban Franco of 1038, Alyssa Block, Amanda Hughen, Amy Cella, Andrew Eargle, Andrew Witrak, Anika Ahlberg, Annie Vought and Hannah Ireland of Double Zero, Anthony Discenza, Barbara Obata, Basement, Becky Ebeling, Becky Johnson, Brett Walker, Carey Lin, Carlos Franco Maldonado, Carrie Katz, Cathy Lu, Charlie Leese, Chelsea Pegram, Chelsea Wills, Chris Lux, Cléa Massiani for Bass & Reiner, Christian ‘Dicky’ Davies, Collin McKelvey, Courtney Johnson, David Bayus, Dorian Katz, Elise McMahon of LIKEMINDEDOBJECTS, Elizabeth Woll, Em Meine, Erik Bakke, Ethan Rafal, Hadar Kleiman, Heidi McDowell, Indira M. Morre, Jackie Farkas, Jacqueline Norheim, Jason Jagel, Jeff Petersen, Jesse Schlesinger, Jessica Flemming, Joanne Easton, Joey Enos, John Duket, Jon Gourley, Jovi Schnell, Josh Stulen, Jud Bergeron, Julie Sadowski, Justin Angelos, Justin Beale, Kathryn Kain, Kelli Yon, Kelly Lynn Jones, Kevin Krueger and Jorge Garcia of Alter Space, Koak aka Kristin Olson, Kristine Eudey, Laurie Halsey Brown from Sense of Place Lab, Leora Lutz, Leslie Lowinger, Lidija Ristic, Lindsey Lyons, Lindsey White, Liz Woll, Luca Antonucci and David Kasprzak of Colpa Press, Maciej Makalowski, Mallika Prakash, Margot Rada, Mario Ayala, Marion Cousin, Marshall Elliott, Mary Button Durrell, Maryam Yousif, Matt Borruso, Matt Gepner, Matthew Goldberg, Matthew Gottschalk, May Wilson, Maysha Mohamedi, Megan Reed, Micah Wood, Michal Wisniowski, Michelle Wilson, Mona Varichon, Mitsu Okubo, Nando Alvarez-Perez, Nathalie Brilliant, NIAD Art Center, Nicholas Andre Sung and N/A, Paper Buck, Randolph Colosky, Ross Waitman, Ryan Zweng, Sarah Hotchkiss, Sarah Thibault, Savannah Rusher x Bonanza, , Simon Pyle, Sophie Leininger, The Thing Quarterly, Todd Lavine, Victoria Wagner, William Emmert, Yarrow Slaps, and more to be announced. There will also be a panel discussion led by writer, curator, and artist advocate Glen Helfand, to include John Zarobell and others to be announced.

Parking Lot Art Fair’s organizers and participants believe that the event will provide a much needed counterpoint to the other art fairs of the Bay Area, one that is more in line with the artists’ practices. This is not a market driven event and is a true experiment of what can be done with zero budget and a group of talented creatives. We hope you will join the fun!
Events on Saturday, May 2:
6 AM- Fair opening
11 AM- Panel Discussion with Glen Helfand, John Zarobell, and others to be announced.
1 PM- Wrap up and Guided Tour to other art fairs
