2009 Precita Eyes Gala

Precita Eyes Muralists are celebrating their 32nd anniversary with, "Community Art From the Heart," our 3rd annual gala fundraiser.
This event will be held Saturday, September 19, 2009 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM at the SomArts Cultural Center, a cornerstone of San Francisco's
rich artistic heritage.

This year's Precita Eyes Muralists Gala features and celebrates the new mural book Street Art San Francisco: Mission Muralismo. Over
200 artists and writers contributed to this unique record of the Mission Mural Movement. Books will be available for purchase, and signed
by the artists who will be present at the gala event.

Our event also includes silent and live auctions of one-of-a-kind works that allow individuals and companies to own an original piece of
mural art. First, over 30 muralists will create an original iconic detail of one of his/her Bay Area murals. Additionally, celebrities contribute
drawings to celebrate "Art From The Heart" and, finally, a participatory performance mural will be painted during the event in the spirit of
community muralism.
