Saint Joseph’s Arts Society Hosts Club Limelight Preview Party for Warhol Exhibit

On January 23 Saint Joseph’s Arts Society, one of San Francisco’s coolest art spaces, helped celebrate Art Week by hosting a throwback soiree inspired by the club culture of the 1980s. The Club Limelight Preview Party gave guests an advanced look at Saint Joseph’s Arts Society’s new exhibit of 20 rare Andy Warhol photographs. Paying homage to the fashionable NYC hotspot in its 80s prime, the party was a wild collage of colorful clubbing costumes and genre-bending immersive art experiences. Bringing together four hundred guests from the worlds of art, design, technology and fashion, Club Limelight was a highlight of San Francisco Art Week.

The special Gap VIP Lounge was strictly SRO that night, where filmmaking legend John Waters was seen rubbing shoulders with famed SF designer Ken Fulk, who founded Saint Joseph’s Arts Society as a place where creatives could convene, collaborate and promote the cultural role of art and design. The current Warhol exhibition, presented by Hedges Projects, reveals how the artist’s lens captured the intersections of fame, culture and the everyday, thereby redefining artistic norms and influencing generations to come.
