San Francisco has always had its own spin on the art scene, so it comes as little surprise that during a week dedicated to the arts - SF is throwing down with an epic Burner-infused four day party. ArtPadSF is back. Here's your chance to experience the community from May 17th to May 20th.

Taking over the Phoenix Hotel (and it's outdoor pool), ArtPadSF will saturate the venue with edgy artists from across the country, film screenings, performances, panels, guided tours, and more. And as with any weekend in SF, ArtPad will also be throwing a slew of incredible parties for their 10,000+ guests complete with open bars and free eats from Chambers Eat+Drink.

Friday night is set to benefit the Black Rock Arts Foundation with a full hosted bar and apps with a VIP upgrade. Dubbed a "visual arts feast," revelers can party poolside with performance artists and DJs repping your favorite camps including Dex Stakker (Opel/Opulent Temple), DJ ICON (Illeven Eleven Records), and JoeJoe (Brass Tax). Noise Pop tackles Sunday with an indie electro concert with Exray's and Future Twin.

Check out the the event schedule, then pick up your tickets starting at $15 for a single day and going up to $125 for the full VIP treatment.
