Personal Space presents Salad Days, an inaugural group exhibition featuring work by artists from Vallejo, the broader Bay Area, Los Angeles, Iowa, New York, and London. As the title denotes the vigor and recklessness of youth, the works assembled here suggest the vulnerability of new beginnings through an abundance of color, humor, material experimentation, and bittersweet pathos. Taken together, these artists dredge the joyful precarity of fleeting moments and summertime bliss to reveal something far more dreamlike and mysterious.

Salad Days includes a newly commissioned book by Jordan/Martin Hell

2-4pm Snacks by Leif Hedendal

The Vallejo Ferry Building is 1.9mi away from Personal Space, and the easiest way to get from there to PS from the ferry building is by cab or Lyft (~6min).
