Youth Advisory Board Final Project
July 12th 2008 from 1 pm-4 pm @ Southern Exposure
Artist Mentors: Eve Ekman, Tara Foley and Sham Saenz
Youth Artist Mentor: Javier Gutierrez

The Youth Advisory Board is proud to present a final show entitled i am who i am. Every Monday for six months young San Francisco artists have engaged in weekly discussion, gallery field trips, drawing, collaborative collage, graffiti, stenciling, photography, and guest artist workshops. Through this process YAB has developed an artistic vocabulary to communicate the experience of every day life and questions of self-realization in to art. For this final show, YAB uses the structure of pyramids to represent different facets and dimensions of, identity that make up the self. Join us for an afternoon of celebrating the art installation with live drawing, interactive art projects and a BBQ in the back!
