Three Events, Three Hats

In my continuing refusal to decide what I want to be when I grow up, I’ve got three events coming up where I get to wear three different hats. And you’re invited! If you’re in San Francisco, come say hi.

  • SFAC Gallery 40th Anniversary Celebration and Exhibitions Opening
    Friday 12 February 2010 at 6pm, San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery, 401 Van Ness Ave.

    … in which I wear my artist hat. The San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery is celebrating their 40th anniversary with a show that includes some of the highlights of the gallery’s past. They’re including some of my photos of the same-sex marriages in San Francisco in 2004.

  • Writers With Drinks
    Saturday 13 February 2010 at 7:30pm, The Make Out Room, 3225 22nd St.

    … in which I wear my author hat. Writers With Drinks is a literary variety show. I’ll be reading a story along with Vikram Chandra, Cherie Priest, James Rollins, and Andrew Porter.

  • National Magazine Day Panel Discussion
    Saturday 27 February 2010 at 6pm, The Booksmith, 1644 Haight Street

    … in which I wear my publisher hat. Kevin Smokler is putting on the first ever Magazine Day, and I’ll be on a panel to discuss the present and future of magazine publishing with Jen Angel and Jeremy Smith.

Hope you can join me at one or more of these events.

Hi, I’m Derek. I used to make websites. Now I grow flowers and know things. I’m mostly harmless. More.
