Free to enjoy by the public and hotel guests, the Tilden Hotel's rotating art series shines a light on San Francisco's spirited creativity and engaging community while directly supporting local artists.
To kick off a local artists two-month residency, Tilden Hotel will host a casual welcome reception on Tuesday, October 1 from 5-8 p.m. in the lobby in what is known as Tilden Tuesday. The event is a bi-monthly gathering that takes place on the first Tuesday of every other month. Open to all, the night features complimentary elevated bar bites and beverages crafted by The Douglas Room, the hotel's signature restaurant and bar.
The Tilden Hotel Art Program is supported through the local community and various local organizations including Wildflowers Institute, Hospitality House, the De Marillac Academy and more. With an emphasis on all things local, Tilden Hotel purchases an art piece from each spotlighted artist that is added to the hotel's growing private collection of local works. 100 percent of proceeds of all art purchased at Tilden Tuesday will go directly to the artists.
The Artist
Laurie Blessen studied at the California College of the Arts and received a BA in Graphic Design. While most of her career was spent as a designer in both graphics and furniture, she always enjoyed practicing art. She recently discovered her passion for monotypes working on an etching press and now is a committed full time abstract color field printmaker.
