Angie Sticher of Spark Arts and Alycia Piazza of Art Attack SF are two of the art walk’s organizers. “After a year and a half,” Piazza said, “we had a steady group of visitors and locals that were excited to see what we’re doing. When we moved to the Castro, we couldn’t wait for the neighborhood art walk—until we learned there wasn’t one.”
“We’ve been looking for ways to to bring artists in touch with Castro merchants,” Sticher said. In June, the two gallery owners began to coordinate a neighborhood art walk with a September launch as their goal. On Thursday, Swirl will offer a special flight called “The Art of Wine,” which will feature wines with beautifully-designed wine labels. The tasting will be priced at $15, and Minns will also have pieces from the “Grumpy Guncles” show on display.
“We hope people who like to visit the Castro will want to experience something different,” Piazza said.
