The 2nd annual Mission Open Studios is happening this April in San Francisco's Mission district. Mission Open Studios is a collaboration between the artists and art studios in the Mission district to have a free open studios art show the weekend of April 26th and 27th with opening receptions at some of the studios the evening of April 25th. The Art Explosion, 1890 Bryant St, CellSpace, LiveArt, Developing Environments and Workspace Ltd along with individual artists will open their studios giving visitors an opportunity to view and purchase beautiful, challenging and affordable art.
At The Art Explosion, we believe that exhibiting their work and interacting with the public are key components to an individual's artistic growth. Therefore, The Art Explosion gives support to several different exhibition opportunities throughout the year Spring and Fall Open Studios and 2nd Saturday gallery hours. All AE artists are welcome and encouraged to participate in every exhibition or show at The Art Explosion.
The galleries at The Art Explosion are truly artist showplaces. Artists and artwork are not juried, filtered or curated at The Art Explosion except by the artist. The art you see is coming straight from the source each artist decides what to show & how to show it. Artists are not charged any commissions on sales. And since the exhibition areas are integrated within the work areas, you can meet the artist, see how they work, see other works in process, and really get to know a piece of art before taking it home.
