Bayennale 2005

Bayennale 2005 is a large-scale, international arts festival running July 22nd through August 7th and takes place at over 40 venues throughout the Bay Area. The opening night party is this Friday, July 22nd, from 6pm-9pm at The Lab in San Francisco.

The Bayennale is an international open invitation for visual and performance artists from around the world to make their way to the Bay Area to join with local artists–and for all to create and perform new work in venues ranging from the gallery to the street to shipping containers magically transformed into art-spaces for the event. The Bayennale is sponsored by the Port of Oakland, and is the brainchild of conceptual artist Lowell Darling.
