Band Together Bay Area Concert
The Band Together Bay Area concert that took place a couple of weeks ago at AT&T Park was such a huge success that a second concert has been organized. On Thursday, December 14, Band Together 2 will take place at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. The event features performance by the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Lukas Nelson & Promise of The Real. All proceeds from ticket sales will go to the Tipping Point Emergency Relief Fund, which is supporting those who were hardest hit by the October fires in the North Bay.

Storied Venetian master jeweler Attilio Codognato’s collection is returning to the Serge Sorokko Gallery’s temporary location at 361 Sutter Street. The exhibit, Memento Mori: Jewels by Codognato runs from December 14 to January 2018 and features nearly 50 new and vintage works. Codognato’s pieces often include serpents and skulls in combinations of gold, silver, and precious stones. “We could not be more honored that Codognato chose, again, to showcase his works with us,” stated Serge Sorokko in a statement. “Every one of the extraordinary pieces that have come out of the century-and-a-half history of this House is a genuine work of art. It is a privilege to be presenting these works in the United States for the second time.”
