The Cheese School of San Francisco has a new website! We've been busy working on it for about 3 months and it just launched yesterday!!! Super proud. It's responsive, filled with gorgeous photos, and mobile friendly.

Thank you to Sandra Murray, Sita Bhaumik, and Robert Carras for your design and photography work.

Some of my tintypes will be at Intersection for the Arts in San Francisco. The reception is tomorrow from 6-9pm. Come through, say hi, and take a photo with me next to the tintypes. yay!!

Tintypes from the Visibility Project will be in an Intersection for the Arts exhibition. Reception is this Wednesday, October 2nd (6-9pm).

If California were a country, as of 2012 it would have been the 9th largest economy and the 34th most populous nation in the world. California is the most populous state in the United States, home to 1 out of 8 Americans. This exhibition is inspired by the countless stories and people that make up the state – from the Homeless Garden Project in Santa Cruz to residents a block away on the corner of 6th and Mission Streets, from a senior synchronized swimming team in Orange County to a youth Scraper Bike Team in East Oakland. Califas features work by Andrea Blum, California is a Place: A Documentary Project by Drea Cooper & Zackary Canepari, Mia Nakano, Joan Osato, Joel Daniel Phillips, SF Postcard Project, and Jenifer K. Wofford & Kyle Herbert.
