Hospitality House Art Opening at MagnetHospitality House Art Opening October 4, 2013 8:00 PM - 10 PM 4122 18th Street @ Magnet! http://www.magnetsf.org/community/events/hospitality-house-art-opening.html We are very honored to have Hospitality House for our October Art Opening. Thank you for sharing your work with us! Hospitality House has served the homeless community in San Francisco's Tenderloin district since 1967. Through our unique combination of peer-led programs and advocacy efforts, many homeless and low-income people have been empowered to unite their voices to stimulate social change. Hospitality House takes great pride in its Arts Program. It is the only free-of-charge fine arts studio for homeless and poor artists in San Francisco. Each year, the Community Arts Program (CAP) offers more than 250 artists the materials and space necessary to create, house, exhibit, and sell their artwork. But more than the art that is made here, the CAP is a progressive and crucial component of the programs offered at Hospitality House because it helps relieve the intangible, private effects of poverty. For those navigating through the impersonal social service system, self-expression and imaginative talent can be stifled and ignored. The CAP exposes people to creative resources that would otherwise be unobtainable to them. These materials are the tools that provide an often-neglected outlet for creative freedom and, subsequently, they serve to enhance self-esteem and ambition.
