Twenty-Twenty: a Year of Transformation

We asked the San Diego community to share their stories of 2020 with us. Through photographs and artwork, we created the Twenty-Twenty SD project to tell the local narrative from the perspective of 50+ San Diego community members.

For San Diego Design Week, the project has been curated into an installation at the Quartyard to share what has been seen, heard, and felt over the course of the year throughout San Diego. Attendees will get to enjoy a self-guided exhibition, while experiencing one of Quartyard's musical events, and get creative at an arts and crafts table provided by Alfa Charlie.

Proceeds will go back to the creative community and support David's Harp Foundation and The One Club SD.
