‘The Hotel Project’: Art Meets LegislationCasey Millsbyline‚ Feb. 10‚ 2006A unique meeting between the usually drab world of legislation and the colorful world of art will occur Friday night, February 10th, in the office of Supervisor Chris Daly, with the opening of an exhibit called ‘The Hotel Project.’ Featuring photography of the Tenderloin by activist Mark Ellinger and an introduction to a proposal to bring mailboxes to residential hotels throughout the city, the event will show attendees images of hotels alongside a concrete way to improve them. The event, which will run from 4 to 7 pm in room 273 of City Hall, provides an excellent primer for those unfamiliar with the Tenderloin’s hotels to see first hand both their beauty and the fight to grant their residents equality with the rest of the city. |
