Saturday October 8th in San Francisco
Our annual Fall Classic, the TRPS Festival of Rock Posters is set to go for Saturday October 8th, 2011 at the Hall of Flowers in Golden Gate Park in the beautiful city of San Francisco.
Featuring rock poster artists and dealers from around the country, this is the biggest rock poster event of its kind anywhere! Those of you who have attended this show in the past know that this is the one not to miss. We bring in the best of the best, and you’ll find everything from vintage psychedelic treasures to the best of the modern silkscreen movement. This year’s version promises to offer another stellar lineup!
The Hall of Flowers (Old County Fair Building) is at the corner of Ninth and Lincoln on the South edge of the Park, not far from the Haight, the DeYoung Museum, and the Academy of Sciences. There are plenty of great restaurants close by, too. Heck, make it a weekend and bring the family to enjoy the great weather, an awesome poster event, and everything else San Francisco has to offer!
The TRPS Festival of Rock Posters runs from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm. Admission is $10 for the public, and $5 for TRPS members with card. Yes, you can join up (or renew) there and take advantage of the member discount.

Cal Expo event poster by Alexandra Fischer. Available at the show.
Visitors to this year’s California State Fair (Cal Expo) in Sacramento will be treated to an exciting exhibit that promises to, well, ROCK!
An entire pavilion called Rock U will be dedicated to all things Rock & Roll. This custom-designed exhibit will feature interactive stations, multimedia exhibits, infused-art sculptures, photos, and memorabilia. And, of course, plenty of posters from all eras.
TRPS will be bringing in a rotating cast of rock poster artists who will not only be showing their work, but demonstrating the process of making posters. The artists will be in attendance for the weekends only.
Bring the kids to this one!
