The New York Times Sunday edition featured an article about how to enjoy San Francisco on $250 a day. Thank god I live here, I don’t think I’d be able to afford to visit!
For shopping fun, they mention Park Life, an artistic gift shop located at 220 Clement Street (where Busvan furniture used to be):
“For quirky objects with an artistic bent, check out Park Life, a shop that carries a well-curated cache of art books, clever housewares and limited-edition objects — like salt and pepper shakers inscribed with the words “cocaine†and “heroin†($125). If that’s not creative enough, pop into the adjacent gallery, which features monthly exhibitions of emerging artists from San Francisco and beyond (priced from $20 to $2,000). Silk-screened T-shirt by the Bay Area artist Tucker Nichols: $28.
This month’s gallery exhibition is entitled “Mundane Shift Shape Placement” – check it out here. To find out more about Park Life, the store and their gallery, visit http://parklifestore.com.
The de Young and Academy of Sciences are also mentioned for their stunning architecture. Thanks to sf.curbed for the tip.
