Statement of Solidarity

Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Access (IDEA) are the key themes Art Works Downtown deems critical to our success and longevity as a San Francisco Bay Area arts organization. It is our responsibility to provide an environment that nurtures the vibrancy and creativity of our community rooted in cultural strength – one that includes the arts through the perspective of a LGBTQ+, disabled, and multicultural lens. We therefore rebuke racism and segregation as we provide a sanctuary where all people can celebrate the practice, study, and exhibition of visual art.
