if you are in san francisco tonight, head on over to rare device. owners lisa congdon {who is also a participant} and rena tom are hosting a signing party and live drawing event for the launch of the exquisite book.

at the shop will be a long table set up where artists from the book will be participating in a live drawing session. it’s sort of like a collaborative game where they draw an image and then pass it to the next artist and so on. some of the artists from the book that will be in attendance include julia rothman {one of the co-authors}, caitlin keegan, lisa congdon, eunice moyle, tom neely, kelly lynn jones, susie ghahremani, and lorena siminovich. the finished artwork will be hung on rare device’s project wall. artists will also be available to sign books, so be sure to grab one.
