Further Adventures of David Best

[theCryptofishist]

With your help it can happen! This post comes to you from the Black
Rock Arts Foundation...

In a very exciting recent development, the San Francisco Arts
Commission has asked the Black Rock Arts Foundation for its support in
helping David Best and his Crew build a temporary installation, in the
spirit of the spectacular Temples they have constructed for several
years at the Burning Man event, at the center of the new Hayes Green in
San Francisco. Mayor Gavin Newsom will be unveiling this new public
green space in early June near the junction of Hayes and Octavia, at
the site where the Fell Street freeway overpass has come down. He has
invited mayors from cities around the globe to join him at the new
Hayes Green in celebration of World Environmental Day and the 60th
anniversary of the signing of the United Nations Charter.

If we can raise the needed funds, the Black Rock Arts Foundation is
hoping that the project will serve as place for gathering and
galvanizing community efforts. During the three months that the
structure is to be in place, we are planning community undertakings
such as Leave No Trace environmental awareness training and city park
clean up efforts. We also expect the Project to host other interactive
arts endeavors, as well as festive community gatherings.

Work on the project must begin April 21st and be finished by June 2nd.
In order for this project to move forward, $25,000 in private funding
must be raised immediately! This is a really exciting opportunity to
share a piece of Burning Man-style interactive art with the Bay Area
community, and we would very much appreciate your support. To learn
