“Sketch Friday” w/ Artists Amanda Lynn & Lady Mags (111 Minna)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

111 Minna Gallery is excited to invite you to our latest art event Sketch Friday! With dozens of artists including our current exhibiting artists – Amanda Lynn and Lady Mags in their show ‘Wildflowers.’

This Sketch Friday is part of an ongoing tradition at 111 Minna Gallery for over a decade. Originally founded by Sasha Eckes, then carried on by Brad K Alder for 12 years until Covid. 

The idea of Sketch Friday is to bring together artists of various media and career levels under one roof to create work for sale in front of a live audience. All sales go directly to the artists themselves. This event allows the public to become more familiar with the individual artists, artists to become more familiar with other artists thus opening up their networking, and the patrons of the arts to be able to purchase fresh work at affordable price points from their favorite artists.

Join the artists and the 111 Minna staff again for this artist-centric event:

About the current exhibition:
With ‘Wildflowers,’ Amanda Lynn and Lady Mags are coming together once again to bring their unified vision of beauty, femininity, and nature to 111 Minna. As long-time collaborators and friends, these two have been creating work together for over a decade and graced the Bay Area with massive public art pieces combining their unique styles. Together they weave watercolor, bold graffiti, powerful female figures, and flora and fauna into one cohesive look.
