Posted on by

Come over and enjoy a fun evening at the Bayview Opera House on Sept, 19th.
The event 3rd on Third is also happening and you will find local food, art and music!
3rd Street between McKinnon and Quesada avenues 5.30 – 9PM.

San Francisco Arts Commission and KALW are show casing Story Telling Performances  where they are highlighting some of the many extra ordinary people from Bayview.
A small exhibition and the stories are shown in the Opera House from 7-8.30PM.

Of 7 stories I had the pleasure to document three; Bayview Senior Center – Linedance, Juana Tello – POWER, and Food Guardian Kenneth Hill.

Come on over it will be a blast!

See program!

Hunters Point Shipyard Artists Space

I am very grateful for the studio I have at Hunters Point Shipyard, it is an amazing creative work space in San Francisco.

This video shared on You Tube shows a great commitment on how Jacques Terzian and his family made it happen, a wonderful treasure from the past brought to us today!
It still requires huge commitment to run this place, thank you David Terzian and Deborah Carroll.  Also STAR is working hard for HSPA to stay intact while housing development is shaking our walls…  Enjoy watching the documentary!

A lovely way to reuse the old and unused… Here a phone booth has turned into a smaller library.

I just love the thought!

My new series that I have been working on for a while; ‘String of Life’ has been a playful game with intertwined threads of photographing digital images without a camera..   and I have a wish to rebuild cameras and scanners into new ‘pixel-capture-tool’.

This post by Photojojo is a great inspiration and I can’t wait to dive into this huge pool of possibilities!!
Just for fun you should check this out too 😀
