September devMeet UPDATE

Tue Sep 2, 2008, 11:19 AM by `yashachan:iconyashachan:
UPDATE:
The ever lovely `switchbladeserenade has offered to run the meet. If I remember things correctly, she's free on Sundays, so the possible days for this meet are:
Sept 14
Sept 21
Sept 28 (last day of the Chihuly exhibit)
I would lean towards the 21st or 28th, so that everyone's got enough time to pre-order their tickets, but which date is best for you guys?

There was an expressed interest in a devMeet in September, but no-one has yet contacted me saying they want to organize it or run the actual meet. However, I have an, omg!, art-related activity to propose for a September devMeet.

How would you guys like to go to the Chihuly exhibit at the de Young?

Dale Chihuly is a glass artist on a large scale and the work is absolutely stunning. You can see a bunch of his work on his website, chihuly.com (I suggest checking out the Persian installations).

More Information

Tickets are $15 (with a $1.75 charge per ticket for buying online) and the de Young recommends buying the tickets in advance. There's a group discount for groups of 15 or larger. Tickets to the Chihuly exhibit also include admission to the rest of the museum.

I am happy to organize this as long as I can get someone to run the meet.

I went to the de Young with a friend just recently, and saw the Chihuly exhibit. I find most of Chihuly's work boring (I liked a few of the smaller pieces), but that's just me. The exhibit is several rooms with large amounts of very large, mostly very colorful, exquisitely made glass things, beautifully presented. My favorite sections in the museum were the modern glass exhibit (which had some more Chihuly, plus many other artists) and the Oceania ethnic art section, but there's lots of nice stuff. I liked the old building lots better, though.

The tickets are selling fast. They are by time daily.

I have also already seen the exhibit, and fastpasses get you a small discount... however, there is a fact I didn't realize beforehand that might get me back. They allow you to take pictures! (no flash). Keep me up to date.

Hey, thanks for the dev meet opportunity.

Unfortunately, I'll be moving to Arcata to attend Humboldt State University for the Fall and Spring, so I won't be able to make any Bay Area dev meets during these seasons. : /

I wish everyone the best of luck in their endeavours, though. Take care! =)

I'm not positive I can go, but if I did go, it woudn't be on the 21st, because I'm on call and the pager doesn't go off in the de Young.

I'm retarded. If I go, it WOULD be the 21st. That is the only day I'm NOT on call.
