/room/ is the workspace adjacent to the / main gallery, founded to give local emerging artists room to create site-specific installations and experimental projects curated by Maxine Schoefer-Wulf. Exhibiting artists are also given the opportunity to engage with the community through public programming, including workshops and artist talks. Proposals are selected by our team and guest jurors via open call.
In March 2020, /room/ launched /digital room/ to continue supporting emerging, Bay Area-based artists and experimental projects during the devastating COVID-19 crisis and growing economic instability. Through an open call guest juried by Dorothy Santos, artists were asked to propose works for /’s instagram and website. 23 local artists were selected and awarded $100 each.
