Check out the fabulous entertainment LineUp here. Don't miss this super fun event! About Frontier Works
Bulleit Frontier Works is a series of projects and collaborations with cultural creators who live on the modern frontier. It highlights interesting places at the edge of culture and celebrate not only our individual partners, but the larger communities they belong to. The modern cultural frontier isn’t a physical place. It’s a shared purpose among people who are constantly pushing boundaries to create something new, interesting and unique. For one of its latest Frontier Works projects, Bulleit has partnered with artist, Kelly Tunstall in San Francisco to re-imagine a standard bottle impression. About Kelly Tunstall: Working in acrylic, collage, spray paint, pencil, pen and ink, gold leaf and some secret sauce, Kelly’s experimental, yet classically grounded works live somewhat comfortably in a space between graphic expression, stylized representation, surrealism and sketch. The patina of age and calligraphic drawing methods lend further depth to her story-filled worlds. Tunstall has shown nationally and internationally, often in collaboration with her husband, Ferris Plock. Her work is on permanent view at the restaurants a16 and Bar Crudo, both in San Francisco and at Alcazar and Cheeky's located in Palm Springs. Her following includes technologists and rockstars, fashionistas and foodies alike. ![]() In celebration of the launch of Bay Club Signature class IGNITE, Bay Club will host an IGNITE-a-thon, a morning of back-to-back-to-back classes at the brand new studio at Bay Club SF on Saturday, August 25th.
