6th on 7th Photography Workshop embraces an โart as therapyโ approach dedicated to improving mental health amongst the underserved community in San Franciscoโs South of Market neighborhood as well as military veterans interested in the art of photography and creative storytelling.
โWe view self-expression as a right, and want to give people the opportunity and platform to share their stories.โ
A project of Tenants and Owners Development Corporation (TODCO), the Photography Workshop has served the community since 1992.
Originally called โSixth Street Photography Workshop,โ when photographer and educator Tom Ferentz founded it with support from TODCO, the program was designed to last only six months. Over thirty years later, we are lucky to continue our mission of spreading the love of photography in San Francisco and beyond.
