United in Nima: Bay Area and Ghanaian Youth
Share Lives Through the Lens

The new photography exhibition United in Nima features photographs by low-income youth from SF Camerawork’s First Exposures photography mentoring program and teens living in the notoriously poor Nima slum of Accra, Ghana who spent three weeks together last summer in Africa sharing their lives, culture and art.


Test Patterns: Recent Video From South Africa

The new video exhibition Test Patterns brings together the work of nine contemporary South African video artists who explore ideas of citizenship and belonging in the post apartheid era. The artists include Churchill Madikida, Penny Siopis, Berni Searle, Simon Gush, Jo Ractliffe, Ismail Farouk, Ruth Sacks, Steven Cohen and Usha Seejarim.
