Sub-Mission Art Space (Balazo 18 Gallery)

• Features: Patio/Sidewalk Dining

Description

If you're underage, punk, and/or Latino, you'll probably find yourself right at home in this art gallery, performance space, and all-ages music venue right smack in the middle of the Mission District. Sub-Mission's midsize stage regularly hosts bands of the hardcore, metal, international, experimental, and just-plain-uncategorizable varieties, with occasional DJ nights for a change of pace. There's also a good collection of local art on display, plus an enclosed rear patio for smoke breaks, a beer-and-liquor bar for the over-21 crowd, and a connected taqueria next door.
