Greenhorns: A Sense of Place Photography Exhibition

18 Reasons and The Greenhorns present:
A Sense of Place

February 3 - March 31st, 2011.

Featuring images from Slow & Steady

The images of farms that we, as consumers of media, are exposed to are often taken by outsiders with no anchors in the land they photograph. In selecting works created by new agrarians who are emotionally rooted in their environment we seek to unearth a deeper layer of the changing landscape of agriculture.

Opening Reception:
Saturday, February 5th, 5-7PM

Meet some farmers. Meet some artists. Meet some farmer artists. Our new exhibition, A Sense of Place, contains the photographic work of 21 farmers from around the country, and we think that's a reason for a little celebration. We'll have live music, yummy treats, some drinks, and lots of good cheer. It's a great way to start your Saturday night!

Location:
593 Guerrero at 18th Street
San Francisco, CA

Admission: Free

I am so very excited about this show and wishing I could be there for the opening. Several images from Slow & Steady are included. If you are in San Francisco, check it out! And snap some photos while you're there! Additional information available on the Greenhorns blog.
