Inspired by Louis Armstrong’s song There Must Be a Way, this exhibition is a love letter to San Francisco: an ode to its complexity, contradictions, and enduring spirit. Through themes of love, struggle, and resilience, the works reflect the soul of a city that continues to imagine, resist, and reinvent. Featuring artists Ben Aronson, Dewey Crumpler, Scott Fraser, and Gordon Parks, each artist offers a distinct perspective on radical compassion and cultural resistance illuminating the fractures of the present while holding space for hope. San Francisco has long stood as a symbol of transformation. This exhibition honors a city that provides safety for healing, and incubate vision for growth.
