Minnesota Street Project presents ATRIUM, a new free alternative art fair bringing together 20+ established and emerging contemporary art galleries rooted in the San Francisco Bay Area. Timed for SF Art Week, ATRIUM transforms the 10,000-square-foot industrial warehouse at 1275 Minnesota Street in Dogpatch into a custom-designed showcase of the region's gallery scene. From long-established spaces to experimental programs, participating galleries present focused selections in booths ranging from intimate to ambitious. Visitors can also explore Minnesota Street Project's 12 resident galleries throughout the fair.
Did the Upper Great Highway closure make Sunset neighborhood streets less safe? Supervisor Alan Wong claimed it did at a January 8 press conference, citing a simple year-over-year map comparison of crash data. But my analysis, using the same DataSF crash data with rigorous statistical controls, finds no evidence to support that claim, and if anything, the data suggest the opposite.
Advocates say two protesters were pepper-sprayed, and two others pulled into the building during the protest. "Two people were sprayed directly in the face. There's one on the ground, both of them still can't see," said one protester. Friday's protest comes ahead of a national day of protest Saturday with organizations across the country gearing up to push back against ICE enforcement.
