“San Francisco Bay Area,” features Creative Growth Art Center (above), Katy Grannan, Lynn Hershman Leeson, and Stephanie Syjuco. 55 min.

A longtime home for political progressives and technological pioneers, the San Francisco Bay Area is a magnet for artists who are drawn to its experimental atmosphere, countercultural spirit, and history of innovation. In addition to presenting three artists working across photography, installation, and new media, this episode features a nonprofit art center, spotlighting multiple artists with physical and cognitive disabilities who work in a range of mediums. The artists in this hour are united by their steadfastness and persistence in creating; their art serves as an essential expression of their experience of the world.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Gallery and Exhibitions Manager of Creative Growth, Sarah Galender Meyer. Don’t miss this special event!
