Harman Projects Toy Drive 2025!

We are excited to announce that we will be hosting a Toy Drive this December! We invite our Harman Projects  community to give back the community we call home and donate toys to children across San Francisco.

 

We will begin collecting donations during the opening  reception of KEFE's exhibition  "Music Island". The exhibition opens on Saturday, December 6th, 6-8 pm and we will be hosting a Meet & Greet with KEFE on Saturday, December 13th, 12-3 pm.
 
Visitors who donate a toy will be able to meet the artists, and receive a customized card made by Kelly Tunstall and Ferris Plock! If you are unable to donate a toy, we will have a QR code present  to donate to  the toy program directly.
