Join Creative Director Linda Connor and the PhotoAlliance board as we celebrate the close of the 2025–2026 season and another remarkable year of PhotoAlliance programs!

This year, we continued to settle in to our lecture home-base the Bayfront Theater, within the Fort Mason arts community, while engaging the wider art community with submission events, and bringing back old favorites like the Slide Slam.

We also strengthened our partnerships with incredible organizations, including the San Francisco Arts Commission, Underdog Film Lab, Pretty Gritty, Harvey Milk Photo Center, SF Camerawork at Fort Mason, First Exposures, Haines Gallery, Bolinas Museum, The Image Flow, and BATS Improv Theatre.

Proceeds from this year’s dinner will directly support our Fall 2026 lecture series, funding honorariums and artist travel, helping to sustain plan for future programs.

PhotoAlliance thrives with community support. Thank you for keeping us strong!

Transportation
There is a parking lot adjacent to the clubhouse. If parking is full, you can park on the street and walk down to the venue. Rideshare services are also good options. If coming by car or cab, navigate to the intersection at Sloat and 19th, since typing in Stern Grove alone in the GPS could lead you to a variety of entrances.

ABOUT THE TROCADERO CLUBHOUSE

The Trocadero Clubhouse is a San Francisco Designated Landmark. Built in 1892, it boasts a colorful history as a roadhouse at the turn of the 20th century, when it offered dancing and gambling at roulette tables. 

It is architecturally and historically significant as an example of Stick-Eastlake architectural style and as the city’s last intact example of a 19th Century roadhouse. It was renovated in 1986 due to extensive use and weathering.

Established by Ryan Hendon, Mark Ryan Fine Art Services has provided custom crafted fine art finishing services using museum standard materials and conservation practices since 2014. From consultation to the design and fabrication stages of your presentation, Mark Ryan Fine Art Services fully embrace the collaborative process to find the right solution for all of artists' projects.

Fort Point was inspired by a love for San Francisco and a desire to make craft beer more accessible. Over the years, it has grown to become one of the city’s best-known independent producers, creating a wide range of new beers and even a line of ciders along the way. No matter the favorite Fort Point brew, one thing remains true — every can hits that sweet spot between interesting and easy to love.

Winery Sixteen 600 is a vineyard-focused winery founded in 2007 by Phil Coturri, along with his wife Arden Kremer and sons, Max and Sam.

The winery produces small-batch, single-vineyard wines exclusively from certified organic vineyards farmed by Phil and his vineyard management company, Enterprise Vineyards. Their portfolio includes wines they love to drink and collect—Grenache, Rhône varietals, field blends, as well as Cabernet and Zinfandel, honoring Sonoma’s rich heritage.

Sixteen 600’s success is built on the dedication of its exceptional team, particularly the vineyard crew, winery staff, and the passionate individuals who work alongside Sam in the office and tasting house.
