Side Street Projects is turning 16 years old, so we’re doing something we haven't done in a (very) long time. We're throwing a real party — our SweetSixteen — a classy/trashy affair replete with gourmet trailer park soul food & top-shelf booze, served up at one of Pasadena’s most awe-inspiring Craftsman estates.
Side Street Projects’ SweetSixteen
Saturday, June 7th, 2008 (6pm - 10pm)
Pasadena, California
[ Exact location divulged to ticket-holders only. ]
Complementing the aforementioned lunacy will be exclusive silent auction goodies, world-class cosmic bluegrass, and unexpected art happenings.
World-famous artist Catherine Opie is creating a commemorative print to mark the occasion — a signed edition, limited to 50 prints, and offered exclusively to ticket-holders. Incidentally, Ms. Opie's mid-career retrospective opens this Fall at the Guggenheim.
You may reserve one Catherine Opie print (sight-unseen) for $500. If any prints remain, they will be available during & after the party for $1,000.
If you want an Opie print, but can't attend the party, you may acquire one by sponsoring an artist for just $100. Contact us at (626) 798-7774 to find out how.

"I See Hawks in L.A., with its songs about watching meteor showers from Angeles Crest Highway and watching Slash work his way through the Hollywood scene, L.A.'s premiere country band is also one of the leading chroniclers of its hometown." -- LA Times "The Hawks have updated Southern California country rock. Their music, driven by the fine steel guitarist Paul Lacques, is sinewy yet poetic--more nihilistic than decadent, with an urban-desert poetry all its own." --The Village Voice "While paparazzi chase the latest talent free celebrity, a talented, literate bunch of soulful musicians create honest and wise roots music for the ages. I See Hawks are indeed one of California's unique treasures." -- Rockstar & guitar legend Dave Alvin, April 2008 "The driving-force duo of singer Rob Waller and guitarist Paul Lacques have cooked up one of the most audacious sounds the Golden State has ever produced." -- L.A. Weekly "I See Hawks In L.A. blend country and psychedelia with soaring three-part harmonies that leave the poseurs of alt-schmaltz dust choked. These guys are the house band for a revolution that isn't over yet." - High Times Magazine "Best Country Artist" -- 2003 & 2004, L.A. Weekly Music Awards |
