The 9th Annual San Francisco Altered Barbie Exhibition 2011 “In Barbie’s Name: What Would Barbie Do? and Ken too?”
San Francisco’s Altered Barbie Exhibition would like to invite you to support our 9th annual gathering and show. Your support / contribution will be helping hundreds of artists express themselves in a non-competitive fun, political and interactive show.
Altered Barbie has an amazing website for viewing and buying the work as well as an annual live exhibition.
