In 2005, Mollusk opened its doors just a few blocks away from the wild and unruly surf of San Francisco’s Ocean Beach to sell clothes and hand-shaped surfboards and to serve as a creative space for the woodworkers, visual artists, musicians, and craftspeople who lurk amidst the Outer Sunset’s thick fog. Over the years Mollusk has developed into a cultural institution that integrates surfing, art, craft, music, film, and visual media. They sell products handmade by friends and neighbors, host art shows in our intimate galleries, and function as a concert venue.
Their storefronts in San Francisco, Venice Beach and Silver Lake have become hangouts and homes for surfers and artists living in these urban and beachside communities.
