Night School


Here is a project dear to our hearts (we organized a series of photo shoots at night a few years back for a possible show - "Night School" - and I provided the above image of the Angel Mural, done in a darkened hallway at Richardson Hall, "painted with a flashlight"). "Uncommon Knowledge: Closing the Books at UC Berkeley Extension," a film by former UCBx staffer, Eliza Hemenway, enjoys a Special Preview Screening at the Roxie Film Center in San Francisco, 3117 16th St., San Francisco One Night Only! Thursday, November 16, 6:30 PM. Hemenway's haunting film documents the abrupt closure of UC Extension's Laguna Street campus in San Francisco.

Guest Speakers include Producer and Director Eliza Hemenway, Best-Selling Author Gray Brechin (Imperial San Francisco: Urban Power, Earthly Ruin) and SF City Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi.

Sounds like an evening not to be missed!
