In December, Actual Cafe is celebrating two years of operation in Oakland’s Golden Gate district. On Friday December 9th from 5-10pm, we’ll commemorate the occasion with the opening of a retrospective art show, entitled “We Are The People In Your Neighborhood”, and featuring our favorite artists who have shown at the cafe in the past year, along with artists from the Actual Cafe staff.
Artists in the show will include: Jon Suzuki (bicycle photography), Eva Silverman & Querido Galdo (Oakland and other urban photography), Alexis Babayan (woodcuts of local street scenes), Nissa Nicole (photography), Lauren Aczon (street corner illustrations), along with two of the cafe crew: Kim Babnik (character illustrations) and Rachyel Puleo (photography).
The opening will also include the unveiling of the cafe’s new indoor mural (also entitled “We Are The People In Your Neighborhood”), by Kim Babnik.We’re happy to be hosting more group shows of affordable art by local artists – look for more (details soon!)
The art show will be hanging until January 12th, 2012, but don’t miss the opening reception/anniversary party. Here’s the event listing on the Facebook.
