The first day of the conference was focused around two sites, San Francisco State University and City College of San Francisco. I was excited to see a demonstration of flying printed kites at SFSU, having made a kite for the Mokuhanga Conference in Kyoto in 2011, but the event hadn't really gotten going yet when I was there and there wasn't much wind, so I continued on.
The exhibition I most loved at SFSU was one called
Progressive Proof: Innovative Prints from the Pacific Rim, which featured dimensional work by nine women artists. Here are some shots from that show.
