 FRANCISCO, CA- Root Division presents Character Profile, a group exhibition 
 featuring projects that explore intersections between the forms, mechanisms 
 and meanings of language.   Featuring a group of twenty-six artists 
 including visual artists, writers, and craftspeople, Character Profile 
 investigates novel functions of language through collaboration and a broad 
 range of materials, media and approaches.\n  \nThe artists in Character 
 Profile present language as both a medium and a subject, and deftly 
 maneuver words to both convey and critique meaning. Many works are 
 interactive and dedicated to a spirit of engagement and play. The 
 exhibition highlights art designed for direct interaction with visitors and 
 work that provokes expanded meanings and alternative associations of 
 language and test.  \n\n \nArtists:\n\n \nAmy Ahlstrom\nKirkman Amyx\nErin

 \nABOUT ROOT DIVISION:\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:
