Thanks to everyone who turned out last Thursday night for the launch party for the spring edition of the San Francisco Public Press. We rocked the basement art space of the new location of the Gray Area Foundation for the Arts at 998 Market Street, full of interactive art. Thanks to Kristine Magnuson for the awesome photos.
