Dinner tickets are almost sold out so get them NOW if you want to come for the Feast of Imagination dinner and auction between 6 and 9pm. Otherwise the main event is 9pm to Late and promises to be a phenomenal night!
The main event is $55 and that might be a little steep normally, but not at all for how special this night is. And this is THE annual fundraiser for Burning Man's sister arts organization, The Black Rock Arts Foundation, and it's a night to remember. Best of all, all profits support off-playa art grants and to help place interactive art projects in public places around the world! Worth every penny on many levels and not-to-be-missed!
Buy a ticket, make a donation or do something nice and sponsor an artist to go if you can't make it in person. But DEFINITELY go if you can. And dress for it! This is a night to get decked out in your finery and imagination and BE the art yourself!
This event has sold out the last two years. So come early if you don't get your ticket ahead of time.
Hope to see you Saturday! Check out all the amazing artists coming from up and down the coast and a few from across the country. Make plans and GET YOUR TICKETS to join us!

SHRINE BENEFIT SF
This Sunday, November 20th!
9pm til 3am
At 1015 Folsom
1015 Folsom St
SF 94103
Please join us as we gather to support a beloved friend and esteemed artist, Shrine. We are honored to host the amazingly talented musicians, producers, and artists coming together to support a dear friend in a time of unexpected need.
For those who don't know, Shrine survived a very serious car accident and has been healing day by day. This gathering comes at a very important time in the process. We are presenting this evening of dance and art to share our community support with one of the most special artists and friends we have known. Every bit helps!
We thank the following music and art providers for their support and performance:
3l3v3n, Abai, Adsum, Aire Redtree, Bad Unkl Sista, Birdseye, Cumulus, DJ Shawna, Emo Fauxhawks (David Satori & Zoe Jakes of Beats Antique), Geno Cochino, Hopscotch, Karim So, Knowa Knowone, Mortar & Pestle, Neptune, Quade, Ra So, Rigzin, Vau de Vire Society
Additionally, we will be hosting an auction in our lower level. Please visit the downstairs early to view the phenomenal pieces collected, and make a bold offer on new art, and for Shrine! The auction will end at 1:30-please be prepared to purchase your items at the end of the night unless other arrangements are made.
All donations will be received the night of the benefit and will go directly to Shrine. Though no one will be turned away, we ask that you come offering a minimum of $15 at the door. If you are not able to make it to the event, visit http://weloveshrine.blogspot.com/ to contribute. Deep thanks for your support!
Please visit http://shrineon.com/ to look at the work and life of the artist himself. In his words,
Dear friend,
I don’t know you,
But I am a dreamer and vagabond too…
Traveling on electric highways
And the house you built of fragile stuff
Is the same as mine..
It may be never, it may be soon,
But I hope that some afternoon,
I’ll hear a step on the creaking stair
I’ll open the door and you’ll be there.

About us:
The Flaming Lotus Girls are a female-driven, San Francisco-based group of
artists who have been making kinetic, mechanical fire art since 2000. Our
work is composed of steel, stainless steel, copper, glass, wood, light, and
fire – and stands at the intersection of sculpture, kinetics, robotics,
pyrotechnics, and electronic technology. Our flames blaze in sizes ranging
from 2 inches to over 150 feet. We create interactive large-scale
installations that engage viewers and invite them to become part of the art.
