Make My Monday

Monday is the new Fun Day

mmm: tasty
3M: Scotch Tape
MMM: Make My Monday (apologies to the fans of the Crash Test Dummies)

Make My Monday Mermaids.jpgTonight, ease into the week with a few drinks, live music and real-time art. Fort Mason Center hosts this eclectic, last Monday of the month event buzzing with end of week-like energy. Selected artists invent their masterpieces from scratch at their personal workspaces. Unlike other gallery shows where patrons are herded from exhibit to exhibit, here, folks dance around like a candle-flame flickering in the wind. Even these artists’ business cards are a spectacle. All art is available for purchase at affordable prices from $5 – $50.

Fort Mason Center MMM.jpgLike the 111 Minna Sketch Tuesday, art is complemented with some keen beats. Fingersnaps DJ spins the live music for this evening. Even the music is approachable… step up to the stage and he might share a few freebies on how to scratch, mix, and perform a couple of turntable tricks. Still not satiated? $2 tacos and sweet treats are cooked up fresh by Chaac-Mool and Batter & Dough. mmm meets MMM.

After swimming in this creativity, how could you not wake up tomorrow with the perfect brainstorm for your Halloween costume?
