Rising Tides: PangeaSeed Brings Global Ocean Art Fundraiser to 111 Minna Gallery
Join us for a spectacular evening of live art, music, storytelling, music by David Choog Lee and more…
International ocean nonprofit PangeaSeed returns to the Bay Area with Rising Tides, a powerful art fundraiser and exhibition hosted at 111 Minna Gallery from April 10 through July 10, 2026. The public is invited to attend the opening night celebration on Friday, April 10, from 5–10 PM, for an inspiring evening of art, music, storytelling, and community in support of ocean conservation.
Bringing together over 100 artists from around the world, Rising Tides is a dynamic showcase of creativity united by a shared purpose: protecting our blue planet. Through painting, printmaking, storytelling, and interactive experiences, the exhibition highlights the vital role art plays in advancing ocean literacy and inspiring meaningful environmental action.
“Rising Tides is a love letter to the ocean and to the power of creativity,” says Tré Packard, Founder and Executive Director of PangeaSeed. “Science gives us the facts, but art moves the heart. When creativity and community come together, we create space for connection, awareness, and action. This exhibition is about harnessing that energy to protect what we love most.”
Opening night will transform 111 Minna into a vibrant hub of art and ocean advocacy. Guests will experience a curated showcase of Printed Oceans fine art prints alongside original works from participating artists across the globe. The evening will feature exclusive print releases and live signings by acclaimed Bay Area artists Jet Martinez, Amandalynn, Griffin One, and Taylor Reinhold, as well as live painting, a community sketch session, short film screenings, and a panel discussion exploring the intersection of art and activism.
Special activations throughout the evening will offer attendees opportunities to directly support PangeaSeed’s mission and programs, which transform environmental science into accessible, community-driven solutions through public art and storytelling.
The event is free and open to the public. The gallery bar will be open, and guests will have multiple ways to contribute both on-site and online.
PangeaSeed’s roots in San Francisco run deep. Fourteen years ago, the city hosted the organization’s first US exhibition. Since then, PangeaSeed has grown into an internationally recognized nonprofit, producing large-scale public art projects around the world, including Sea Walls Santa Cruz and Sea Walls Emeryville. Rising Tides marks a meaningful return to where it all began while celebrating more than a decade of global creative impact.
