A very heartfelt thank you to all of you who supported the The Rise Project! The event was an amazing night of fashion, art, good music and good vibes! The night was a complete success for the team who put it together and also the artists who participated in it! It was a special night for so many people doing their thing for the very first time. Congratulations to all the artists, thank you to all of our 450 guests who came out (on a Wednesday!) and we will see you again at the next Rise Project! Stay tuned!!

The Rise Project

The Rise Project is a San Francisco based art collaborative whose main goal is Raising Interest for Skilled artisan Entrepreneurship. Through our events, we encourage new and rising artists to pursue their craft as well as provide an intimate space for exhibiting their work. The Rise Project is a window for artists to introduce themselves, show their work and receive support from the art community. It is also a great opportunity for more established artists to network and support new local talent while promoting their own work. Our featured artists include painters, illustrators, photographers, fashion designers and musicians. The Rise Project invites all art enthusiasts, art buyers, and all open minded people to come and experience what the Bay Area artist community has to offer!

Thank you for taking a moment to learn about our art collaborative event. You are invited to come support our debuting artists as many are exhibiting for the first time. The Rise Project welcomes other talented artists for future events. If you or anyone you know is a rising Bay Area artist and is interested in sharing your work, please feel welcomed and empowered to say hello, provide your contact information, as well as photos of your work on our blog, our myspace page or at the event. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at the Rise Project art event! Rise up ya'll!
