SF Bay Area Stationery Meetup - Click-clack Clipboards

SF Bay Area Stationery Meetup - Click-clack Clipboards

Sun, Oct 25, 6:00 PM
From San Francisco/Bay Area Stationery Meetup
4.9

Hi Stationery Friends! I'll just give it to you straight - we've been struck with a fever. Many of us are down bad for the satisfying clap of a sturdy, magnetic clipboard, and we're doing our best to spread the contagion. You might think you're safe, but have you ever really paid attention to the beautiful wood grain, the helpful clip, the convenience of writing or sketching wherever you want? On that note, whether or not you're a clipboard enthusiast, we'd love to see and hear about your on-the-go setup! Are you toting all your supplies around the house in a perfectly organized bag, or haphazard piles that leave a trail of markers behind you? Are you a steadfast hardcover notebook fan, so you can write anywhere without a separate surface, or dedicated to slim softcovers you can tuck in any bag or pocket? Do you buy duplicates of your favorite stationery so you can keep the perfect eraser in every bag, or keep everything in its place and never journal in a second location? Whether or not you can make it this month, [join us on Discord](https://discord.gg/TG8pK5BTkT) to talk stationery, learn about future meetups, and vote on themes. Rickshaw recommends the nearby Coffee Shop, Piccino Cafe, La Stazione, and Neighbor Bakehouse for coffee & pastries. Street parking is available but pay close attention to the restrictions - they're different on basically every street surrounding Rickshaw. The 48 & 55 buses drop off just about at Rickshaw's door, the Caltrain 22nd Street Stop is a short walk away, and so is the 23rd Street Stop of Muni's T Line.

Spanning the 1950s to the 2020s, Friedlander’s photographs of Maria constitute one of the longest extended portraits in the history of visual art. While the approximately 50 photographs chronicle the unfolding of the couple’s relationship, they simultaneously chart the evolution of Friedlander’s artistic vision. This event is hosted In association with the California Camera Club. [https://www.meetup.com/california_camera_club](https://www.meetup.com/california_camera_club/events/31600993)
