Photography - First Exposures

First Exposures students had a unique opportunity to create bilboards that were publicly displayed on city streets throughout San Francisco and San Jose. Using current events and their personal experiences with prejudice or misjudgment, First Exposures students used the power of their words and images to design billboards that encourage a greater acceptance of diversity and difference. Our hope is that the billboards will inspire people to overcome the human instinct to prejudge each other, and instead, affirm our similarities as a human race. The resulting billboard prototypes were also displayed in a show at San Francisco City Hall, in collaboration with the San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery.
