ABOUT ABOUT

We're back for the always-amazing Bay View Gallery Night! This time, we're so excited to be featuring local textile artist, Grace Rother, who will be showing a series of quilts pieced around concepts of homeland and homecoming. We're thrilled to have their beautiful and intricate work in the space. Please respect the artist and don't touch the quilts--as tempting as it may be!

A limited supply of bespoke, signature cocktails and mocktails will be available from our wonderful catering partner, Nomadic Beverage Company! Drink tickets can be purchased here, in advance, or at the door. No cash bar.

At 7:30 we'll also run a ticketed behind-the-scenes tour to showcase The Bindery's historic book equipment and printshop. 

Both tour space and drink offerings are limited! Be sure to purchase either in advance!
