Have you always wanted to own a piece of design history? And even better – get it from the designer who made it? Show-and-Sell is your opportunity to meet some of the region’s design greats and rummage through their samples, collectibles, and collections – and take home your favorite pieces. For a small price (if you’re lucky), but also for a great cause: AIGA SF’s Scholarship Fund.

You'll discover

  • Books
  • posters
  • magazines
  • ephemera
  • rarities
  • design manuals
  • one-of-a-kinds
  • limited editions
  • and other treasures from the flat files of...
Clement Mok, Michael Vanderbyl, John Bielenberg, Gaby Brink, and many others. A preview ticket gets you in early (2–3pm) before doors open to the general public.

Show-and-Sell is organized by David Peters, Rhonda Rubinstein, and Clement Mok for Compostmodern, with Preview Events and Gray Area Foundation for the Arts. Join us this Sunday as we kick-off Social Innovation Week, a festival and celebration of the many ways people in the Bay Area area come together to innovate for the greater good.
