de Young Museum: Friday Nights at the de Young.
Comment by AB: Every Friday, the de Young stays open until 8:45. In addition to wandering the galleries (which charge admission), you'll enjoy a variety of free events like live music, poetry, films, dance, resident artist shows, tours, and lectures, the cafe and a no-host cocktail bar (not free), and art-making opportunities for children and adults. Tonight's offerings include the closing reception for "The Crucible - Unity with Nature," and a concert by music ensemble, "Classical Revolution."
Art at the Crucible closing reception. Crucible reception art. Crucible reception. Crucible closing reception. Tunes by Classical Revolution - like 'em.

Comment by AB: Group show of visual artists whose art is based in sound and music. A smattering of music and video rounds out the picture. The event is somehow affiliated with Bay Area Now 5, but I'm clear on the details. And of course it's a superior party (what else is new?), dense with art, there's all kinds of creaitve carousing going on, nomadic ice cream available c/o Brion Nuda Rosch, and even occasional local luminaries perambulating about the place, like former YBCA (and current Oakland Museum) curator Rene de Guzman, for instance.
Art. Art. Art. Art. Abstract experimental music video in the center gallery. One more from the center gallery. Your basic guitar-in-an-anvil art. Hmmm. What have we here? Sound in a box art - kinda like it. Mike Bianco - gallery co-director. Art. Pssst - you rub this shit on your art to get it into museums. Kottie Paloma + found photograph artist book. Brion Nuda Rosch and random attendee enjoy nomadic ice cream. Art. Art.
