Last one from the “Bay Area, When?” show. There was a fun back wall, complete with security camera, that was just outside the “cafe”. The cafe was the space’s kitchen, with nice-smelling coffee to drink, and an early 2000s video of a funny cable access “news” show. #cctv #cableaccess

Here’s another one that got pasted up along Mission St. here in SF this week. Appears to be #badbunny related bits in this one, but the main message is loud and clear. #chingalamigra #sanfrancisco
Here’s another one from the “Bay Area, When?” show. Pretty Gritty had a free wall up for folks to add their works for the weekend run. #chingalamigra #sticker #slaps
Ivy Jeanne on the walls at Pretty Gritty space, for the “Bay Area, When?” weekend show.

This one is for Jimmy Kimmel and anyone else who feels afraid to freely speak.
One of the funniest things I ever saw at #burningman was a gift: a guy had a trash bag full of free lighters. Thing was, he had taped tiny USA flags on toothpicks to the lighters. First light was burning the flag. I laughed when I burned mine, and still laugh thinking about the whole memory #flags
In San Francisco's Castro District.
"USA Funds Genocide"
Stencils spotted in Ashland, Oregon
Awesome hand-made #stencil tee on Dolores St. #sanfrancisco, during today's massive #NoKings procession to Civic Center here in San Francisco. #protest #antifa
Calamity Fair's "Weird Lady", straight from San Francisco :)
Click the pic to see a stitched up photo of all of the Stencilada exhibit and the CELL Metal Mural from around 2009. This storied arts collective warehouse got torn down. They were hoping for market rate condos, but the community got low income housing! #stencils #sanfrancisco #streetart
CELLspace PopUp! A slice of 2050 Bryant St. gonna be up for a month starting late August at the Midway Art Gallery.
I'll keep bugging you about it in the coming weeks....
Meanwhile, in the crosswalk at the US immigration building in the Financial District of San Francisco...
A recent trip to Hollywood was mostly full of advertisement stencils. I did find a few gems, and this Star Wars Jedi/Rebel Alliance logo mash up was a surprise. I can only speculate what FV means, but in the case of May the Fourth... F..k Vader fits! #maythefourth #starwars #jedi #hollywood
Snapped this one a few weeks ago, and it is still running. On Kearny at Pine diagonal from the 555 California skyscraper. Someone regulalry wandering through this area with anti-fascist stickers, posters, and stencils.....
Caught the #freakytales movie last night at the Balboa Theater. It is filled with Oakland/East Bay 1980s vibes, and includes a high body count of bleeding/dead fascists. When 924 Gilman Space voted to beat some skinhead ass, I had to raise my hand in support. #oakland #antifa #movies
caught this in SF's Chinatown last week, and found a different poster a few blocks later. Wandered down Grant Street several days after snapping this pic, and posters were buffed. I guess the political stuff doesn't run.... #stencil #wheatpaste #buff
Caught this roller piece on the sidewalk outside of my activist day job... rolled down fm Grant, past Kearny, and off the curb 100ish feet away. It is a phrase artist Zara Thrustra uses, but they denied doing this. A few hours later, the buff was on with pressure washers.... #stopmen #graffiti
A local in Hayes Valley must've wanted to help folks at Patricia's Green realize that the green strip is indeed what the words say it is. Kinda like the "Look" with arrows stencil that DPT paints around the City. Stay safe out there! #DIY #stencil #bicycles #pedestrians #sanfrancisco
create and destroy sticker
flip a coin? flip a #sticker! Just remembered I made this one in 2007. Once again, the 2-in-1 idea inspired by Mad. #madmagazine #art #create #destroy
no on is illegal
Snapped this pic years ago during a march in #SanFrancisco #missiondistrict . #nooneillegal . Check out more protest stencils here: www.stencilarchive.org/archives/san... #stencil #protest
Star Wars, Han Solo Rebel Symbol. Sometimes antisocial but always antifascist.
Always good to remember where we stand! From Poland, an early submission to Stencil Archive around 20 years ago. One of the more interesting #ANTIFA stencils on the site. BTW, a simple search of "ANTIFA" will get most of stencils listed in results.... www.stencilarchive.org/sites/defaul...
"Abolish Australia Day"
Stencils seen around Naarm/Melbourne
Fresh stencil pic, snapped at yesterday's rally in front of San Francisco City Hall. Hand-made stencils on protest signs always fun to catch. Stencil Archive even has a special archive for these pics, gathering images from across the City.
