San Francisco Art Dealer Mayer Flaks Attends San Francisco Festivals

One of the benefits of living in San Francisco is being surrounded by a city that whole-heartedly embraces art and artists. Every year, there are dozens of festivals held within or around San Francisco. Some are wine festivals, some dance, and some are geared to San Francisco art dealer Mayer Flaks own specialty as an art dealer.

Mayer Flaks lives and works in San Francisco as an art dealer. He is always on the lookout for talented new artists to promote. For Mayer Flaks, attending art festivals and cultural festivals is both educational and recreational. Some art festivals he attends are invitation only while others may be attended with the purchase of a ticket. But whether the art festival is on the street and open to the public or private and invitation only, Mayer Flaks uses the opportunity to meet the artists and socialize with other art dealers around the city.

There are a number of art festivals in San Francisco. One of the free events Mayer Flaks enjoys attending is the Lower Polk Art Walk which doesn't have an official start or finish point but is generally performed late October. In 2013, the art walk is scheduled for October 20th where gallery owners will keep their galleries open until 10pm. Mayer Flaks looks forward to this event because the 2013 Lower Polk Art Walk will open the first Artist in the Alley outdoor night gallery. 

Mayer Flaks looks forward to this new event because it will feature live art and fine art from independent artists. However, artists in attendance have to register prior to the October 20th event. And although this event is geared towards Mayer Flaks own interests as an art dealer, he still enjoys many other festivals held in San Francisco. Mayer Flaks likes to attend the festivals mainly because they are a source of culture and entertainment to bring the city together.
