Another artist, Eddie Fuse, happened to hear about the ActivistArtistA Bay Gates Project and just showed up. Seeing over 20 artists, studios, and gallery's bustling with energy during the ART Garage Sale he set out to meet Roly.  After some talk about wanting to be a part of The District he was told to bring his sketches on Monday. The result was "AnAtomic Bombz!" The third mural already on site.

This is a work in progress between "Venom" and Chan Shepherd.





The Bay Gates have been a favorite place for all visitors to get their pictures taken.



Recently acclaimed videographer Andrew Colton shot a promotional video using 4 of the images as backdrops to create the mood and texture of his rapid fire edits he is known for. 

We will be presenting more artists and their creations as the Bay Gates Project continues. Stay Tuned!
