Using current events and their personal experiences with prejudice or misjudgment, First Exposures students used the power of their words and images to design billboards that encourage a greater acceptance of diversity and difference. Our hope is that the billboards will inspire people to overcome the human instinct to prejudge each other, and instead, affirm our similarities as a human race. The resulting billboard prototypes were also displayed in a show at San Francisco City Hall, in collaboration with the San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery. The billboard project was made possible by generous donations of time and resources by: The Nelson Fund of the Community Foundation Silicon Valley The Louis R. Lurie Foundation The Gould Family Foundation The Potrero Nuevo Fund of the Tides Foundation The Morris Stulsaft Foundation LeAnne Hitchcock and Janeil Englestad, Guest Teachers Clear Channel Outdoor: Billboard Donors Patricia Sohl, Symbolism Archivist at the C.G.
