Sadly, SFAI, the San Francisco Art Institute closed. I’ve made many trips there, alone or with friends. Perched on Russian Hill, not too far from the water, the building boasts a Diego Rivera mural and is an old church. The building itself is a work of art.
Operating in the bay is just expensive, but it’s a bummer they went. The view from there was tremendous. I’ll include some photos below (some I took and others from online). An old artist friend attended there, too, and one of my favorite college professors, Dale Carrico, lectured there.
Just thinking about it makes me want to make an art trip to the bay, maybe to the SF MOMA…
