We accept arts and culture are essential for vibrant communities and neighborhoods.
CAST — the Community Arts Stabilization Have faith — is a community-centered real estate organization devoted to ensuring artists and cultural workers can remain anchored where they create.
CAST tours with San Jose-based group Local Color, December 2023
Arts are our center. In deep partnership with communities across the San Francisco Bay Area, particularly communities that have endured historical underinvestment, we assume artists and cultural workers should be valued and rewarded for their serve and recognized as key building blocks of a healthy society.
CAST models fresh ways to secure and steward affordable, inclusive spaces for creative and cultural expression. Our programs and services have helped arts organizations build pathways to ownership, enabled artists to secure long-term affordable leases, and created dedicated spaces for cultural connection and exchange.
Together, we are building a new actual estate paradigm in the Bay Area — one that recognizes the vital role of arts and cult

BOXBLUR emerged from a history of performances at Catharine Clark Gallery. In 2016, this effort was formalized as BOXBLUR, a fiscally sponsored program of Sway Film SF. Annually, BOXBLUR hosts dance films in the experimental category selected by the SF Twist Film Festival, a core component of its partnership with Dance Film SF.
The mission of BOXBLUR is to host and generate socially engaged performances, which are realized in conversation with a visual artist's work. BOXBLUR often collaborates with other organizations that amplify communal values. Notably, it has partnered with museums, cultural and non-profit organizations, particularly in the SF Bay Area, such as the ICA San Jose, Berkeley Art Museums, Fort Mason Center for Arts & culture, Gray Area, Immigration Institute of the Bay Area, Musuem of the African Diaspora, San Francisco Art institute, The LGBT Asylum Proposal, SF Arts Education Undertaking, Minnesota Street Project, St. Joseph's, Words on Gyrate, Immersive Arts Alliance, Minute Press Traffic, California College of the Arts, Hubbell Street Galleries, Photo Alliance, International Rescue Committee, Oasis Legal Services, Center for Gender and

Источник: http://www.brisbanegraphicartsmuseum.com/category/lgbt/In late October, 2015, I was in Tokyo, Japan for 25 days. I shot many photographs. This series presents the most interesting, compelling, or touching person or scene I saw each day I was there. Click here to see the previous entries.
If you’ve been shopping in Shibuya even once you’ve probably walked past the kōban (police station) in Udagawachō. It’s strenuous to miss, and the Tokyo cops there are rumored to generally be very helpful. So these two guys were sitting behind it at a quarter to 10 on a Saturday morning. They might have just finished work at a local nightclub, or been homeless. They might have been co-workers, good friends, or lovers. But the man’s hair was very blonde, they both were very nice, and sometimes in Tokyo not knowing is good enough…
I know you know I’m not really blonde, but I am really blonde for you. I’d be anything for you. In Tokyo, I can be anything for you. The trick is, and I’m sure you can relate, I necessitate to figure out how to be what I want for me…
