The artistic medium may be any expression of hope, including performing arts, visual arts, literature, and film. Artists interested in submitting their work for consideration should register by March 1 at info@sfgmc.org to receive more information. All entries must be submitted by April 1, 2021. Award recipients will be announced on April 15, 2021.
