ArtSpan and the San Francisco Ferry Building invite you to join us for Brightside, a joyful Art-In-Neighborhoods exhibition celebrating the light, energy, and transformation of summertime through the eyes of five local ArtSpan Artist Members.
Set beneath the Ferry Building’s iconic skylight, Brightside transforms the Grand Hall into a vibrant pop-up gallery featuring large-format 2D and low-relief 3D wall-hanging works. This playful and nostalgic showcase invites you to reflect on the beauty of the season, the glow of long summer evenings, and the many ways art connects us to place, memory, and one another.
Come experience art, connect with the artists, and enjoy light bites and drinks alongside friends, family, and the Ferry Building community. Supported by the Port of San Francisco.
