All the students benefit from participation in a professionally curated exhibition at SOMArts Cultural Center and mentorship from curator Kevin B. Chen. \nAbout San Francisco FoundationSan Francisco Foundation is committed to a Bay Area where everyone can get a good job\, live in a safe and affordable home\, and exercise their political voice.
