  • From the gallery: Please join BEST PRACTICE on Saturday, Oct. 23 from 6-8:30 p.m. in the Brick Room at Bread & Salt, 1955 Julian Avenue 92113 for our first art auction fundraiser. Funds raised at this event will go towards some exciting future programming. This Fall marks our five year anniversary — thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. We're in disbelief that opening a small bulletin-board gallery has led us to this point. We are grateful to the following artists (and to Mark Quint too) for the contribution of works to the auction: Brody Albert, Andrew Alcasid, Trevor Amery, Robert Andrade, Farshid Bazmandegan, Jennifer Anne Bennett, Lyndsay Bloom, John Brinton Hogan, Kelsey Brookes, Jessica Buie, Alida Cervantes, Andrea Chung, Kate Clark, Andy Cross, Anna Delgado, Nicole Deline, Thomas Demello, Tom Driscoll, Patrick Dunford, Corey Dunlap, Victoria Fu, Kaori Fukuyama, Anya Gallaccio, Kim Garcia, Sofia V. Gonzalez, Cristobal Gracia, Marina Grize, Matthew Hebert, Gosia Herc, Audrey Hope, Sarah Hotchkiss, Janelle Iglesias, Farrah Karapetian, Yasmine K. Kasem, Richard Keely, Bill Kelly, Alexander Kohnke, Jason Lane, John Oliver Lewis, Thomas Macie, Keaton Macon, Jessica Mccambly, Dominic Miller, Nina Montejano, Michelle Montjoy, Lorena Mostajo, Nikko Mueller, Mike Mulno, Mauricio Muñoz, J Noland, Kathryn O’halloran, Noé Olivas, Tatiana Ortiz-Rubio, Scott Polach, Matt Rich, Andrew Roberts, Barbara Sexton, Mindy Solis, Eva Struble, Walter Sutin, Joshua Tonies, Perry Vasquez, Evelyn Walker, Melissa Walter, Allison Wiese and Joe Yorty. Our current exhibition, Alida Cervantes' "El desastre que dejaste," will also be open the evening of the auction. About Best Practice: BES PRACTICE was founded by Joe Yorty and Allie Mundt in 2016. Situated in the historic Logan Heights neighborhood of San Diego, BEST PRACTICE is a not-for-profit art gallery that promotes artists and curators whose work stimulates discourse. Our programming is rooted in the belief that compelling art poses more questions than answers, and that dignity, diversity, and equity are crucial to this commitment. For its first two years, BEST PRACTICE existed at two locations in San Diego — within an institutional glass-enclosed bulletin board housed within the Department of Art, Architecture + Art History at the University of San Diego, and on a Sony Trinitron video monitor installed at Helmuth Projects which screened video works to the street around the clock. In 2019, BEST PRACTICE opened its first gallery space on Kearney Avenue in Logan Heights where more than a dozen exhibitions and events took place. BEST PRACTICE relocated three city blocks in 2021 to its current space at Bread & Salt at 1955 Julian Avenue.
