After the holiday lull, things are getting back to normal as 2011 kicks into gear…
Art afficionados and enquiring minds living in the Bay Area or visiting will be happy to hear that today, January 4th, the De Young Museum starts another year of Free First Tuesday…
Here's their invitation to a visit:
"It's free first Tuesday! Tickets to Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne & Beyond are sold out today. But come in and see the permanent collections, plus the exhibition "To Dye For" (closing Sunday, 1/9)"
Concerts and other cultural activites under the Friday Nights banner return on January 14
