Welcome 2021!

We welcome 2021 and invite you to engage with SFAI via online events with alumni, residents, and community. SFAI alumni, Labor Residents, and Story Maps Fellows share their works, voices, and reflections on the most pressing issues of our time.
SFAI is an independent arts organization forging critical inquiry and cultural exchange among artists, creative practitioners, and the broader community. We support and amplify dynamic artistic practices that engage complex social issues, inspire individual transformation, and inform collective action.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, SFAI had to reschedule our 2020 Labor residency to 2021 and postpone our 2021 Revolution residency to 2022. As a result, there is no open call for applications in 2021. Please sign up for our newsletter to stay informed about future opportunities.
