Mark Your Calendar: 20th Century Art and Design Show

From Thursday, September 11, through Sunday, September 14, the San Francisco 20th Century Art and Design Show & Sale will be taking place at Fort Mason Center's Herbst Pavilion.

The event features "50 premier national and international exhibitors presenting decorative and fine arts from all design movements of the 20th century."

In other words, it's the good stuff -- and at nosebleed prices. I seriously doubt there will be any bargains, but it still sounds like a fun way to ooh and aah over absolutely beautiful pieces and to educate yourself about 20th century modern design.

The event's keynote speaker is 1stdibs founder and president Michael Bruno, who will kick off the exhibition's first day with a Thursday morning lecture on buying vintage.

Show hours are 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday. Admission is $20, and lectures are $10. Click here for more info.
