Happy Valentine's Day!

February is upon us and we have several great events planned for the month, including some familiar and some not so familiar faces. If you've never been to an event at Farley's, we hope you'll take a look at the list below and find something to your liking. If you do not see anything that peaks your interest, let us know what you enjoy and we'll do our best because we love you. Happy Valentine's Day!

Love, Farley's



Artist of the Month

Jackie Link

During February longtime hill resident Jackie Link will exhibit recent color and black and white photographs, most of them shot from the seat of her bicycle. Jackie is an avid cyclist so it was natural for her to begin carrying a camera on her trips around town, and while cycling here and there around the world. Her photographs tell stories, often with people or objects forming patterns in their environment — a man walking in Minna Alley with shadows and lines marching in counterpoint, turtles and yellow iris in perfect harmony at Stow Lake, a tourist on a river's edge in France dwarfed by endless rows of arches—and bring a fresh eye to familiar landmarks and street scenes.

Window Artist of the Month

Allen Gelder

Allen Gelder will be showing different taxi tops for the month of February!!! If you enjoyed last month's windows, come check out the new display this month.

Longtime SF cabdriver Al Gelder cuts vinyl and polycarbonate plastic to make whimsical taxi signs, which are mounted on the front and back of his taxi toplight. These signs use typography and visual motifs from local signage seen on cab trips around San Francisco. Some taxi signs employ instructional design themes intended to help hailing passengers easily figure out if the cab is open or busy.

Come enjoy Allen's truly unique collection of Taxi lights!
