Street Scene,” is by Charles Blackwell, a participant
in the Community Arts Program of Central City Hospitality
House (CCHH), a community center serving homeless
and low-income individuals in the Tenderloin neighborhood
of San Francisco.
The Community Arts Program provides free-of-charge
materials and space for homeless, formerly homeless,
poor, and at-risk
artists to create, house, exhibit, and sell their
work.

which works to build community strength by advocating
for policies and rendering services that foster self-sufficiency
and cultural
enrichment, also offers assistance through the Tenderloin
Self-Help Center, the Employment Program, and the
Shelter/Case Management
Program. Please visit www.hospitalityhouse.org or
