White Walls, Shooting Gallery and 941 Geary started a give away this morning! For every 100 likes on our Facebook Page, we are giving away a book from past artists to a randomly selected facebook friend. Once we hit 1,000 followers we’ll be giving away artist prints! Tell your friends and coworkers and family and even your “didn’t we meet once at a party?” acquaintances to ‘like us’ because the more followers we get, the more we’ll be giving away!
