 ROOT DIVISION:\n\nRoot Division is a visual arts non-profit located in the 
 Mission District of San Francisco. Root Division's mission is to improve 
 appreciation and access to the visual arts by connecting personal 
 inspiration and community participation. We provide subsidized studio space 
 to working artists in exchange for their service in creating shared 
 learning opportunities for the community. Artists develop creatively and 
 professionally by teaching art to underserved youth, leading adult 
 education classes, and producing exhibitions that showcase local emerging 
 artwork. By combining multiple opportunities for creative exchange, Root 
 Division cultivates an artistic ecosystem that enriches life throughout the 
 Bay Area. \n\nRoot Division is supported in part by grants from the The 
 Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, San Francisco Arts Commission: 
 Cultural Equity Grants, Grants for the Arts: San Francisco Hotel Tax Fund, 
 Phyliis C. Wattis Foundation, Crescent Porter Hale Foundation, Zellerbach 
 Family Foundation, W A Gerbode Foundation, and Bill Graham Memorial 
 Fund.\n\nFor further information regarding events and/or press materials,
