Join us to celebrate 40 years of The Lab and honor Pamela Z’s nearly four-decade history of collaboration with the organization.

In addition to Pamela Z’s decade-spanning performance program, the party features food by chef Leif Hedendal (who has cooked at Noma, Chez Panisse, Greens, among others), a pre-show open bar of natural wines and equally delicious non-alcoholic alternatives, cake by the great @vinegary_personality, and afterparty DJ sets from Brontez Purnell and others. We’ll also have selections from our poster and flyer archive on display in the back room of The Lab.

Founded in 1984 as “Co-LAB” with a theater at 1805 and gallery at 1807 Divisadero in San Francisco, what we now know as The Lab celebrates 40 years of its history and honors artist Pamela Z, an integral part of The Lab’s artistic community. Starting in the 1980s, Z launched a series of interdisciplinary “Z Programs” beginning at The Lab, ran a “SoundLAB” workshop series providing artists access to digital audio workstations, and performed many times in various configurations.

We’ll also be displaying some pieces of our extensive poster and documentation archive, and revealing our plans for renovation of the historic San Francisco Labor Temple Main Auditorium in the wake of securing 12 years of lease stability at the Redstone Building, where The Lab has been since 1995.

Proceeds from this event benefit The Lab’s ongoing programming, as well as our expansion and restoration of our historic space in the Redstone Building.
