The Mission “Dive Bar Art Crawl” is Back!

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 again. Which is exactly what I’m doing.

Here’s the info from the press release they sent:

September 21, 2024 is the second Dive Bar Art Crawl in The Mission District. Ten 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, Mission Bowling Club and Rite Spot Cafe will be showing art from local artists.

The bar crawl and art event occurs all day Saturday September 21, 2024. Check with each bar for hours, drink specials and come out to support local artists and local watering holes. There will be live painting by Brent McHugh at Ruth’s at Treat Street and The Lone Palm is featuring a PBS documentary on artist Trevor Southey and live music from Mr. Lucky at The Rite Spot.
