The Mission’s First “Dive Bar Art Crawl” is Here!
As you probably know by now, I love dive bars. Hell, I’m even the official dive bar columnist for SFGate. And since you also know we cover a whole bunch of art stuff on this site, the Dive Bar Art Crawl is pretty much the perfect thing for BAS, and of course for you, dear reader.
The fine folks behind the Dive Bar Art Crawl knew this as well, so they reached out so we could help spread the word. Which is exactly what I’m doing.
Here’s the info from the press release they sent:
March 23, 2024 is the first ever Dive Bar Art Crawl in The Mission. Nine bars within walking distance are rallying together to celebrate artists and their contribution to vibrancy in the neighborhood. Mission Bar, Benders, Lone Palm, Doc’s Clock, Pop’s Bar, Ruth’s at Treat Street, The Homestead, Casements and Mission Bowling Club will be showing art from local artists.
