The Sam Francis Foundation is dedicated to the transformative power of art as a force for change. The events of this year have highlighted even more the importance of life and art as they intersect. We join the world in mourning, protest, and solidarity for EQUAL RIGHTS and BLACK LIVES MATTER. There is much work to be done and we are even more committed to addressing the climate of racism and inequality through education and engagement of the cultural, social, and environmental challenges of the day.
