Founded in 1984 by interdisciplinary artists seeking a home for experimental work in San Francisco, the Lab has played a critical role in nurturing artists’ careers for decades. Housed in the century-old Redstone Labor Temple in the Mission District, The Lab gives significant funding, time, and space to traditionally underrepresented artists. The Lab is a catalyst for artistic experimentation.
