Art After Dark
Welcome Spring Break Jake to the Bunker SLO. Jake is an artist we met at a group show in San Francisco. Jake is a Bend, OR-based painter who creates heavily textured, multi-layered work using the juxtaposition of tropical imagery and colors with macabre, Memento Mori-style illustrations.
Shining a light on the all-too-often unseen and unspoken parts of our psyches, Spring Break Jake's work explores the reality of our collective mental health, encouraging the viewer to embrace the good & the bad, the light & the dark, and the inner & outer worlds that are inherent to the human condition.

A Traveling Museum Unlike Anything You’ve Ever Experienced — The Office of Collecting and Design, an interactive museum of “lost” and “forgotten” objects, is taking its beloved collection on the road! The museum is often described as a “nostalgia machine,” transporting visitors into a world of delight, curiosity, and half-buried memories. The previous brick-and-mortar space has been transformed into a 42’ traveling museum, where visitors can open every drawer, explore every box, and engage in hands-on experiences like the Flatlay Session or Scavenger Hunt. The museum will be collaborating with incredible local businesses and creative spaces to offer a truly one-of-a-kind experience at every destination.
Regular Visit: Explore the space at your own pace. Open every drawer, look in every box, find all the hidden details. 1 hour, on the hour, $22 per person
Scavenger Hunt: Delve into the museum while following our hand-drawn map to hunt down some of our favorite objects in the collections! Go home with a tiny copy of the map, time-stamped with your results. 1 hour, on the hour, $35 per person
Flatlay Session: Curate, sort, arrange, and photograph your own flatlay, and then go home with a tiny instant film print of your creation. 2 hours, on the hour, $75 per person — only available during certain time slots) All tickets must be booked in advance.

Art After Dark - Colleen Gnos
Shell Beach artist, Colleen Gnos, is best known on the Central Coast of California for her gold-scaled mermaids painted on surfboards or her idyllic scenes of surfers and breaking waves. Stories of her Portuguese grandfather running a tugboat out of Avila Beach, CA, diving for abalone, and training navy divers in the 1930’s contributed deeply to Colleen’s fascination with the sea. In the last few decades, Colleen has illustrated surfboards for renowned surfers and board shapers, and has shown her paintings across the USA and Italy. She has completed over 100 original painting commissions for private collectors.
