The Arts at the Haberdashery Inaugural Event!

Dear Lost Souls,

The Arts at the Haberdashery (H@B) is very proud to announce our inaugural celebration on September 28th, 2012, at the Jellyfish Gallery (1286 Folsom Street, SoMa), in the San Francisco SoMa District. You and your friends are invited to join us as we kick off SF's newest forum for the arts with a live music performance featuring an international cast of characters. Don't miss what is sure to be an outstanding two act live show featuring:

DJ Mr. Fabulous with Oakland Symphony Bassist David Arend (Starting at 10pm)

with opening act:

Johnny Walnut (Starting at 8:30pm)

Doors will open at 8:00pm. For those of you from the East Bay who don't want to go home after work, Azúcar Lounge is on the corner and serves great drinks, or come knock on the door at the Jellyfish Gallery and you can hang out while we set up (any time after 6:30pm). There is no entry charge for this event, but the H@B would appreciate any contributions to the community bar, or small cash contributions to the tip jar to offset expenses and to provide some compensation for our musicians for their hard work!

The mission of the Arts at the Haberdashery (H@B) is to leverage the Haberdashery weekly Cocktail Hour for the purpose of supporting the visual and performing arts. Working with the Jellyfish Gallery, the H@B is excited to have the opportunity to showcase the artistic talent and energy of the SF Bay Area. Watch for future events showcasing local artists . . . and let us know if you or someone you know has a talent we can feature!

CAYA; The Celestial Scales

Dear Lost Souls,

The celestial scales oscillate in their timeless rhythm . . . an intricate symphony of light and gravity . . . ellipses intersecting in golden arcs of cosmic dust sprinkled through the vast and empty darkness. And so, our little blue life raft wobbles along, offering up its tireless bounty of seasonal variations, as we sow and reap the harvest of our labors. So as the scales once again see eye to eye in the glory of the equinox, let us pause to contemplate our good fortune for being in the community of anointed cosmonauts piloting this magical biosphere on its journey toward the promise of our collective destiny.

Yes, my Quixotic Cosmonauts, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. And though the frenzied spin of our weekly toils threatens to eject us from the sweet comfort of Gaia's gracious gravities, the Haberdashery promises a soft landing at the end of another seven cycles of Apollo's golden orb. Come as you are . . . to find refuge in the collective shade of our low expectations in the eclectic company of familiar strangers, and worry not for the morrow.

Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,
Los Cabañero

NOTE!: Next week CAYA will be in San Francisco at the Jellyfish Gallery . . . with a two act show including DJ Mr. Fabulous, El Dave, and the Johnny Walnut band!

No Cocktail Hour This Week; Mark your calendar for Sept. 28th!

Dear Lost Souls,

There will be no Cocktail Hour this week. But please mark your calendars for September 28th, when the Haberdashery Arts Bureau (HAB) will be teaming up with the Jellyfish Gallery to host an evening of music and lights fantastic in San Francisco, SoMa.

In the mean time, this evening we invite you hoist a glass in general direction of our sacred halls . . . and we will hoist one in your honor!

Yours,
Los Cabañero

CAYA; 'Tis The Season of Brrrr!

Dear Lost Souls,
 
Each year, the Labor Day weekend firmly seals the fate of summer . . . an Irish wake to the golden glories of a season past, and a harbinger of the looming advent of Gaia's darker humors. Prepare the harvest, return to school, put away the Playa equipment, and take in the dock. 'Tis the season of Brrrrr . . . when even the names of the months foretell the chill that will bring the heralded crimson and gold of autumn's ephemeral reign.
 
Yes, my Solar Socialites, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening . . . and what better way to celebrate the glory of summer's passing then in the company of your fellow Haberdites . . . the diligent custodians of the CAYA metronome, marking the passing of yet another seven celestial circuits of Apollo's golden chariot. Come join us as we hoist a toast to all that ends, to all that begins again, and to all the promise that will unfold with the glories and sorrows to be revealed in mysteries of the morrow.
 
Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. As always, please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary destiny du jour . . . or to linger indefinitely under our verdant canopy of low expectations.
 
Yours,
Los Cabañero
