Upcoming Events

• Documenting Community Life and Art Work

  Presented in partnership with Kearny Street Workshop and Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center, this workshop addresses two distinct needs: a) how artists can best document their work through still photography and video and b) how artists and community members can document everyday life in our communities. Both subjects will be explored by showing examples of work as well as demonstrations of techniques. Workshop participants are encouraged to ask questions and share their experience in these fields.

  Facilitated by community photographer, Bob Hsiang and documentary filmmaker, Eddie Wong.
