Founded in San Francisco in 1984, Artists’ Television Access has persisted as an artist-run, non-profit organization for emerging, experimental, weird, and challenging moving-image work for over thirty-five years, fostering a supportive community for the exhibition of innovative art and the exchange of non-conformist ideas. It provides an accessible screening venue and gallery for the presentation of programmed and guest-curated screenings, exhibitions, performances, workshops and events.

“I love uniforms! Because if there’s nothing there, clothes are certainly not going to make the man. It’s better to always wear the same thing and know that people are liking you for the real you and not the you your clothes make.”
