ArtNowSF is wrapping up the year with a huge show at 1:AM gallery titled “The Circle of Life”.  Art is a continuous journey and a never-ending cycle of discovery and growth.  Over 35 established and emerging artists will visually create their interpretation of the meaning of life.  All the artists in this exhibition created original works on different sized wood circles.

The opening reception is on December 18th, 2009 from 7:00-10:00pm and is a 21+ event.  The show will run through January 30th, 2010.

Doing our part to complete the circle of life and to give back to the community, 1:AM and ArtNowSF are hosting a toy drive for the holiday season.  1:AM gallery will be a toy donation station from December 8th through December 24th, 2009 for Friends of the Children (www.fotcsf.org), Opportunity Impact (www.opportunityimpact.org), and My Own Two Hands (www.myowntwohands.com). Please bring only new, or like-new toys to donate.  Every toy donor will receive one ticket redeemable for an artist painted ornament while supplies last.  When you donate toys to needy children, you are not only giving a toy but also the gift of inspiration and hope.
