Programs: In addition to STAR grants to organizations who work in the surrounding community, STAR has produced historical exhibits at the Bayview Opera House, staged planning conferences with the Bayview community and greater Bay area arts community. As Shipyard redevelopment continues, STAR will increase our efforts engaging the community and planning the future arts community to ensure that the needs of the community and artists are articulated and met throughout the process. In addition we implement an artist-in-residence program for artists who have a connection with the Bayview-Hunters Point community
