SFWA outgrew their former gallery in Presidio Heights and look forward to moving into the much larger space that features 14' ceilings, skylights and a courtyard.
Collaborating with other nonprofits and engaging student interns, SFWA hosts a variety of events that invite neighborhood participation, featuring talented artists, offering varied workshops and presentations, hosting receptions/special events and activities for the community at large.
