Rise Japan Declared A Success!

Such a success, in fact, that there will be a second installment this Thursday, April 7th from 7pm-11pm. The first event at Kokoro Studio and Gallery Heist raised a grand total of $14,549.81! The organizers want to thank everyone who came out and supported a great cause. Here is a nice write-up of the event.

The Second Installment

Because so many artists offered generous donations to RISE JAPAN, the organizers planned another fundraiser art exhibition in San Francisco. The second event for  RISE JAPAN: Japan Earthquake & Tsunami Fundraiser will be take place at ARC Studios & Gallery with more exciting art and projects from nation-wide artists.

Arc Studios & Gallery features ten newly renovated artist studios, a 1,000 sq. ft. art gallery, two small galleries, and an art education center, with VEGA Blue Bottle Coffee and Goodie Goody Cream & Sugar Cookies, located at 1246 Folsom Street, between 8th & 9th streets in San Francisco’s SOMA neighborhood. (3 blocks from the Civic Center BART station on Market Street)
