International Orange: The Bridge Re-imagined

Posted on Wed, 05/16/2012 - 06:00

The San Francisco Arts Education Project, in cooperation with the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, presents INTERNATIONAL ORANGE: The Bridge Re-imagined, an exhibition featuring artwork created by students from San Francisco public schools to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge.

SFArtsEd, in collaboration with Artsource Consulting and working with professional artists-in-residence in public school classrooms, has invited students to creatively explore and re-imagine the national landmark living in their own backyards. The Walt Disney Family Museum is honored to be one of the 75 galleries celebrating the legendary span across the Golden Gate Strait.  

This marks the beginning of a commitment to actively engage our surrounding community, and to support efforts by organizations that foster creativity, innovation, and exploration. The Museum’s Dumbo story sketch, displayed here, symbolizes our new partnership with SFArtsED, and proves that with the right mixture of inspiration and imagination, any bridge can be transformed into a work of art.
