Kronos Labs are free and open to the public; first come, first served. They are part of the Kronos’ fifth annual music festival, which is produced by the Kronos Performing Arts Association (KPAA) and part of the San Francisco-based 501(c)3 nonprofit’s KRONOS PRESENTS program. It is made possible by generous support from San Francisco Grants for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Clarence E. Heller Charitable Foundation, and the KPAA Board of Directors.
