SF Camerawork raises the bulk of the operational budget from two major annual fund raisers, the Fine Art Print Auction in the first week of December, and the Portrait Party help over Mothers' Day weekend. Please contact us if you would like to participate in either of these events!!
And, SFCW is always in need of volunteers to staff programming events, openings, lectures, portfolio reviews, slide shows, and performances!
First Exposures: Youth Opportunities Through Photography is a special interest mentoring program where academic skills and life skills are developed by combining the benefits of mentoring relationships with art education. The volunteer mentors are professional, commercial and fine art photographers with a commitment to youth and to education. Their students are creative young people, aged 11-18, with backgrounds which include homelessness or low-income living situations. The students and mentors work together in one-to-one partnerships in a group setting. First Exposures fosters supportive intergenerational relationships in a stimulating environment of active learning.
