The Homeless Prenatal Program invites you to Our House, Our Mission - an art exhibition that celebrates the agency’s neighborhood while grappling with its changes. At the same time, the event will underscore HPP’s mission to break the cycle of childhood poverty.
Our House, Our Mission will showcase a special photography exhibition by Janet Delaney, whose work South of Market is currently showing at the de Young Museum. This new series will feature portraits of HPP client families in their homes. As with her prior work, these photographs offer compelling images of residents against a shifting cityscape.
The evening will also present curated collaborations with local artists Ivan Lopez, owner of Artillery A.G. and Marsha Shaw, manager of Mission Grafica. Work from featured artists will be complemented with pieces by HPP staff and clients, interactive artwork by attendees and a viewing room showing the San Francisco Chronicle’s recent special report entitled A changing Mission. Entertainment will be provided by vocalist and harpist María José Montijo and DJ Offerings of Audiopharmacy. Food and drinks will honor the neighborhood’s distinctive culture, and a silent auction will feature artwork as well as a large offering from neighborhood businesses.
Our House, Our Mission will honor Dr. Daniel Wlordarczyk, Attending Physician at SF General Hospital and South East Health Center. Dr. Dan – as he is affectionately known by his patients and colleagues – was among the first physicians to recognize the importance of quality health care for underserved pregnant women and families in the city. He helped inspire the founding of HPP over 25 years ago.
Proceeds from Our House, Our Mission directly support the agency’s programming to support over 4,000 homeless and low-income families a year.
