MUSICAL GUESTS - COSMIC MICROWAVE BANDWIDTH!
We are excited to announce Cosmic Microwave Bandwidth will be returning to the Box Shop Open House. Catch the experimental post-rock band Cosmic Microwave Background performing their original tunes. CMB is Mike Mckevitt in guitar and bass, Ronnie Blaze on bass guitar and vocals, Ragi Dindial on drums . Their exquisite harmonies take a dip on stoner rock, shoegaze and lofi.
MAKE ART!
Our very own Charlie Gatekin will lead family and kids art activities. Get ready to do a collage! Attendees will create a unique piece of art combining different materials, such as glue, paper, cardboard, paint and trinkets into a canvas or a repurposed background.

We commissioned local artists to paint more than 130 murals throughout the space. The Box Shop is one of the Bay Area's largest open-air mural art exhibits!

The Box Shop is a haven for metalworkers, stone carvers, seamstresses, painters, woodworkers, sculptors, bicycle engineers, electronic car producers, and more. Bring your questions and quench your curiosity.
SEE WHERE MASSIVE ART IS BORN!
Colossal structures are created at The Box Shop. Some become treasured public art, like Entwined Meadow - an installation in Golden Gate Park in the winters of 2020-2024. We’re also a Burning Man arts community hub. Dozens of Playa sculptures and art cars are built at The Box Shop. Check out the space, machinery, tools, and people that make this magic possible!
