A SEASON TO CELEBRATE!

Join Creative Director Linda Connor and the PhotoAlliance board as we celebrate the close of the 2024–2025 season and another remarkable year of PhotoAlliance programs!

This year, we found a welcoming home for our lecture series within the Fort Mason arts community, while expanding our reach and showcasing the Insight/Incite 20/20 Portfolio with an exhibition in San Francisco City Hall, in collaboration with the San Francisco Arts Commission.

We also strengthened our partnerships with incredible organizations, including the San Francisco Arts Commission, Harvey Milk Photo Center, SF Camerawork at Fort Mason, First Exposures, Haines Gallery, Bolinas Museum, The Image Flow, and BATS Improv Theatre.

Proceeds from this year’s dinner will directly support our Fall 2025 lecture series, funding honorariums and artist travel, helping to sustain plan for future programs.

PhotoAlliance thrives with community support. Thank you for keeping us strong!

ABOUT FORT POINT BEER COMPANY

Fort Point was inspired by a love for San Francisco and a desire to make craft beer more accessible. Over the years, it has grown to become one of the city’s best-known independent producers, creating a wide range of new beers and even a line of ciders along the way. No matter the favorite Fort Point brew, one thing remains true — every can hits that sweet spot between interesting and easy to love.

ABOUT WINERY SIXTEEN 600

Winery Sixteen 600 is a vineyard-focused winery founded in 2007 by Phil Coturri, along with his wife Arden Kremer and sons, Max and Sam.

The winery produces small-batch, single-vineyard wines exclusively from certified organic vineyards farmed by Phil and his vineyard management company, Enterprise Vineyards. Their portfolio includes wines they love to drink and collect—Grenache, Rhône varietals, field blends, as well as Cabernet and Zinfandel, honoring Sonoma’s rich heritage.

Sixteen 600’s success is built on the dedication of its exceptional team, particularly the vineyard crew, winery staff, and the passionate individuals who work alongside Sam in the office and tasting house.
