This Saturday (9/26) is the 10th Anniversary of The Expo for Independent Arts, to be held in the Music Concourse in Golden Gate Park from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

The Expo for Independent Arts is the Bay Area’s only grassroots connection fair for independent arts, music & culture. It is the premiere event for arts-audience development and -community building in the Bay Area — a gigantic Show & Tell for arts projects of all genres and disciplines to engage with the public, gain recognition and new audiences and supporters.

Two hundred exhibitors and upwards of 5,000 attendees from around the Bay Area and beyond are expected to participate. Exhibitors will include diverse arts projects, arts service, performance troupes (dance, theater, music), venues, ‘zines, record labels, schools, studios, galleries, collectives and more.

Four large-scale murals will be painted LIVE at the Expo, featuring the talents of the Quetzal Collective (East Bay), Andy Gouveia (South Bay), Brino Ism (North Bay) and Precita Eyes Mural Center (West Bay).

The Golden Gate Park Music Concourse is located between the DeYoung Museum and the Academy of Science.
