The Rayko Photography Center's annual Juried Plastic Camera show opens this Friday. The gallery is at 3rd and Harrison.
The work in this show is always exciting, creative and beautiful, and opening night is always a big party. Please some if you can.
(full disclosure: I've got a picture in this year's show)

Thanks for the tip. I'm going to be in San Francisco this Friday.
Edit: Vince I just went on the two sites you included above. This is right down my alley. You say 'night' is the gallery going to be open during the day?

I was over there but the rain was coming down so badly and the wind blowing so hard, I decided to try it next week too.

Got a Diana Mini 35mm Plastic Camera
After enjoying the show I just had to pick up a plastic camera to tinker around a bit. While in LA last week I did just that, getting a Diana Mini.
Last Friday I loaded up a roll of Ektar 100 and headed up to the city (San Francisco) to have lunch and have some plastic photo fun. Below are a couple of shots from that day (drug store scan) and there is a link to the full set on Flickr as well.
Opinion... No decision yet. Had a lot of fun but not sure it's my "thing". I did get better with it as the day went on, learning that you need a FIRM grip on that thing to compensate for camera shake (heavy shutter release and slow shutter speed).
Anyway, lots of fun! Try it if you have time

Plastic cameras are huge fun! I was lucky enough to have one of my Holga shots in the Rayko show, and also in the Krappy Kamera Exhibition at Soho Gallery in NY at the same time! My only time with "coast-to-coast" exposure, and it's all because of a $30 Holga!
