welcome to salt.
We’re glad you’re here.
SALT is the common element of blood, sweat + tears, the artists' greatest tool. it is what separates those who dream from those who do. SALT is Strength Attitude Love + Talent. SALT is not art history or criticism, it is the present - here and now - what is new and what is next. Your guide to art and culture in the San Francisco Bay Area.
