The Tenderloin is known for many things: historical buildings, a bustling nightlife, and $3 Vietnamese sandwiches. However the homeless population of the TL is often sidestepped, an issue that Central City Hospitality House works against. Since 1967, this organization has offered peer-led groups that promote job creation, substance use counseling, and creative expression for our neighbors in need. San Franciscans can support this cause on May 21st at Andrea Schwartz Gallery, host of the 24th Annual Art Auction for Hospitality House.

Since the opening of The Shooting Gallery in 2024, we have already seen great advancements in the Tenderloin community. By donating artwork to the Hospitality House auction, we support social change on the home front. With Barclay’s and 7×7 on board, it’s sure to be a lively event: stay tuned for more details.
