welcome to salt.
SALT is the common element of blood, sweat + tears, the artist’s greatest tool. It is what separates those who dream from those who do. SALT is not art history or criticism, it is the present - here and now - what is new and what is next. SALT is your curated guide to select art and culture in the San Francisco Bay Area.
We’re glad you’re here.
