Sat­ur­day Octo­ber 8th in San Francisco

 Festival of Rock Posters poster by Carolyn Ferris

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.

Harmony Festival 2011 poster by Dave Hunter

The Rock Poster Soci­ety will be pre­sent­ing a very spe­cial ver­sion of our Rock Art By the Bay artists’ show at the Har­mony Fes­ti­val at the Sonoma County Fair­grounds in Santa Rosa, CA on June 10th, 11th, & 12th, 2011.

The Har­mony Fes­ti­val has over the years become a pre­mier music, arts, and cul­tural fes­ti­val in North­ern Cal­i­for­nia. This year’s ver­sion fea­tures a stel­lar lineup of bands includ­ing The Flam­ing Lips, Primus, and Michael Franti & Spear­head, among dozens of oth­ers. The fes­ti­val also fea­tures an array of speak­ers, unique arts, cul­tural events and exhibits, and of course ven­dors and food galore.

We’re stoked to have made a spe­cial arrange­ment to present our poster artists event as part of a very spe­cial “Arts Pavil­ion” at the Har­mony Fes­ti­val. We’ll be shar­ing Har­mony Hall with Tribe 13, a nation­ally known col­lec­tive of vision­ary artists. Any­one who’s a fan of rock posters and art will be treated with a spe­cial treat for the senses.

Yes, you do need to get tick­ets to attend the Har­mony Fes­ti­val. Ticket prices will go up at the door the day of event. Tick­ets can be pur­chased now at Whole Foods, a com­plete list of par­tic­i­pat­ing stores is avail­able here.
