For anyone flying out ot, into, of through OAK, there is a nice little exhibit there in terminal 1 by the Oakland Museum of California through April, featuring several Bay Area luthiers' work. It is co-curated by Louis Santer and Ervin Somogyi, and mostly features guitars and ukes -- but there is a really sweet Zouk on display built by Santer, pictured below, as well as some really cool basses built by Harry Fleishman.
