Review for Root Division, San Francisco, CA, USA
I've known the Root Division folks since the very beginning. They founded the organization with the question, "What do artists need to maintain their practices and contribute to the larger community?" The answer? Artists need reasonably priced studio space, opportunities to exhibit their work and teaching experience. Root Division's model provides these three things to artists. But the real beauty is that the artists also "give back"--through teaching in under-served schools, adult education, and a myriad of events and diverse exhibitions. Root division is true to its mission. It's a great organization.
