Fundraiser for North Beach Citizens.
Missed the opening blowout for the latest fundraiser for North Beach Citizens tonight. 6-9pm at Gallery 28 on Grant. (We were at an event at the San Francisco Food Bank. I won’t even =begin= to tell you the other events that were happening citywide.)
Famous folks with their fundraising art. Less famous folks with theirs. All for a good cause. BUY! SPEND! DONATE!
This, of course, is mine — a collage titled, “Cool, Grey City of Love.” Challenge was to take an LP and create some art on it. The theme was VINYL TRANSFORMATION. You couldn’t do something 3-D but anything else was up for grabs.
This photo of my collage maybe not so hot, eh? But the collage is worth $5, don’t you think? $10? Who will give me $20 for a GOOD CAUSE! HERE, FOLKS! $50?
I haven’t seen what Ferlinghetti, or Hirschman did, and I couldn’t be at the blowout tonight, alas. Check in with Gallery 28 on Grant to see what the other donees did and spend money for a good cause.
Couldn’t make it to the opening reception and want to bid in person? There will be a closing reception on 26 March 2011, with poetry reading and auction.

Carnival Splendor now docked at P35
The Carnival Splendor, she of the ill-fated Mexican cruise last fall, has been in dry-dock at P70 since 31Jan for needed engine repairs.
Three weeks and $8-$9m later, the repairs appear to be complete as the ship moved from P70 to P35 today for final work before it heads off on its next cruise.
Congrats to the folks at BAE Systems for finishing the huge project.

And the sun shines on the Bay.
When the lights go down in the City.
And the sun shines on the Bay.
Do I want to be there in my city?

And the Giants win the World Series
Just sayin’
We saw police cars/boats/&c. being sent out to outlying areas during the eighth inning when it seemed we had a chance. Would the fans tear up the town with a win? That was the question.
With luck the news will arrive on our doorstep tomorrow with no ugly clashes or fights or deaths or stupidities or whatever.
We’re happy.
