SAN FRANCISCO — Sunday is the final day of the Hunters Point Shipyard and Islais Creek weekend of SF Open Studios, with studios open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Oct. 18.
Shipyard organizers list more than 130 participating artists, with open studios, food, a beer garden, live music and family activities across Hunters Point Shipyard and Islais Creek Studios. Admission and parking are listed as free.
Where is SF Open Studios Weekend 4?
The main Hunters Point Shipyard entrance is at 451 Galvez Avenue. Islais Creek Studios is at 1 Rankin Street.
The participating-artist directory lists more than 130 artists across the two locations. Visitors can move through working studios, meet artists and see a wide range of media and styles.
What are the hours?
Open Studios runs 11 a.m.–6 p.m. Sunday. Oct. 18 is the final day of the Hunters Point Shipyard and Islais Creek weekend.
Is SF Open Studios free?
Yes. Shipyard Trust’s fall promotional material describes Open Studios as free and open to the public. The Shipyard directions page also lists free parking.
What else is happening at the Shipyard?
The organizers list food, a beer garden, kids’ art and live music alongside the studio visits. A separate silent auction and CRANE performances are also part of the broader Shipyard calendar.
Those adjacent programs can have their own schedules or RSVP details, so visitors should not assume every activity follows the same 11 a.m.–6 p.m. Open Studios hours.
How do you get to Hunters Point Shipyard?
The Shipyard directions page says the main site is at the outbound end of the 19 Polk bus line. It also lists the 15 Bayview Hunters Point Express as an alternate option with a transfer or walk from Third Street.
Islais Creek Studios is two blocks north of the 19 Polk stop at Evans Avenue and Rankin Street and is also a short walk from the T Third Street rail stop at Evans Avenue.
