2019 Architecture & the City Festival | SF
The 16th annual month-long celebration features behind the scenes and walking tours, films, exhibitions, lectures and more that address varying aspects of the design and planning process.
This years festival theme, “We the City”, aims to explore how cultural diversity and connectivity inspire and inform the built environment. From the Dogpatch to the Outer Sunset — San Francisco is a unique, diverse, and multi-generational mosaic.
The murals of Balmy Alley in the Mission were created in the 1980s by 30 artists who covered the entire block with vivid depictions of the culture and political and economic struggles of Central America.
This film will be preceded by a short film, Island of Secret Memories, directed by Loni Ding (1988), 20 mins. This short film is co-presented with the Center for Asian American Media.
