The Clark Report

Ok, look.  It’s the holly daze. The time of year everyone is running around trying to do everything  and visit everyone and go to all the parties.

I’m here to tell you – just take a long winter’s nap.  In a Santa cap.

It works for me.  You might feel a little silly at first, but trust me – you will wake up refreshed on January 1st, and all the madness will be over.
Meantime – if you must join the hustle and bustle, please do stop in the garden for some pets and crafts.  I’ll be there napping in the greenery.
You can’t miss me.
I’ll be the cat
in the Santa hat.

LOVE,

CLARK        

Hayes Valley Art Works: A Community Creation Space

by Hayes Valley Art Works, posted in Perspectives, Videos

By Kaylee Fagan

Hayes Valley Art Works, a “community creation space,” was erected on historic Parcel O on the corner of Fell and Laguna streets, in Hayes Valley. Artists, students, neighbors and families come to “the Works” to create and appreciate visual and performance art, as well as study permaculture, ecology, and urban design with creator and Director Jay Rosenberg.

Thanks to Mikal Malkovich and Peter McQuaid from Haight Street Art Center, we were able to have a GoPro camera  capture some amazing footage of last month’s Labyrinth Design with Mary Teetor @HVArtWorks.

With the help of Abuntoo, a new fundraising platform where donors can pick rewards offered by a local business as a thank-you gift, we are launching a month-long campaign to raise $3,000 for a new project for the site, ‘A Walk Through Time’, which will combine art with an interactive narrative history of Hayes Valley.  To support the project and to receive rewards from local businesses like CityRide Bike Rentals, visit Abuntoo at www.abuntoo.io

Amazing Views from Above and Below

The transformation from a vacant lot to an active, beautiful community space is more and more apparent everyday. We’re beginning to see our beloved vacant lot in a new light (well, new lights) and also from a new perspective.

A big thank you to Nathaniel from Avalon Hayes Valley for the exciting perspective from the rooftop of the apartments across the street on Hickory (a.k.a. Parcel P, the old 101 on-ramp, the Hayes Valley Farm tree-fic jam and apiary, etc.).
