And those disparities play out worst for people of color in every area. If you look at health, education, and even art, it tends to be people of color that don’t have those kinds of opportunities. So it’s a really important step that the arts commission is being a leader in the city—to take a hard and honest look at their work, work to undo some of those disparities, and be proactive about finding ways to be equitable racially.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Dr. Anh Thang Dao-Shah, the SFAC’s recently appointed, inaugural senior racial equity and policy analyst, studies show the leadership of arts organizations to be predominantly white. “In publishing, over 90 percent of book reviewers are white, and more than 80 percent of executive directors at dance organizations are white,” said Thang Dao-Shah during her presentation Monday before the SFAC board. “Over 60 percent of foundation funding in the arts goes to about 2 percent of arts organizations presenting predominantly western European forms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, the heads of most of San Francisco’s major cultural institutions are white men, including recent appointments like \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13843927/thomas-campbell-former-met-director-to-head-de-young-and-legion-of-honor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thomas Campbell\u003c/a> at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13846403/esa-pekka-salonen-appointed-music-director-at-sf-symphony\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Esa-Pekka Salonen\u003c/a> at the San Francisco Symphony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We as a society are starting to grapple with the truths of our history, and understanding the root causes of a lot of the problems that we’re seeing every day,” said Flores. “Institutional, structural racism is at the heart of so many of our problems. What’s different now is our ability and our willingness to actually take some steps toward righting these wrongs that have been carried out for so long.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

So the process of reapplying each time is especially onerous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have been making the amount that would clear us for a loan, but it just comes from different places one year, then the next year, it’s just a completely different array of places,” Contreras says. “The bank people say that doesn’t look good.

Because many artists have gigs on the side to pay the rent, like driving for a ride-sharing service or waiting tables, the designation has more to do with an applicant’s artistic resume than how much money he or she makes from an artistic practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Do they have a track record of exhibiting or showcasing creative work as an artist?” DeCaigny says. “So for visual artists, that would mean exhibitions at a gallery or perhaps a stint in a residency or a teaching commitment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, teachers became the first professional class to earn a low cost housing preference in San Francisco.

The city selects winners at random from a pool of qualified applicants. Though the system is mostly online these days, some of the methods are still decidedly old school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They hand you a real lottery ticket, like the kind that you would take to get on a carousel or something,” says Jeremiah Barber. He and his partner Ingrid Rojas Contreras are both artists who have lost count of the number of times they’ve had to reapply for the lottery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every time that we apply we have to clear it with the bank again and get a loan again and then submit the same documents to the apartment,” Contreras says. “It doesn’t make sense.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like many arts industry workers, the couple has no fixed income. So the process of reapplying each time is especially onerous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have been making the amount that would clear us for a loan, but it just comes from different places one year, then the next year, it’s just a completely different array of places,” Contreras says. “The bank people say that doesn’t look good. They don’t want to give us a loan for that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13828601\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13828601\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"San Francisco Director of Cultural Affairs Tom DeCaigny\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-768x576.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny-520x390.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/04/tom-decaigny.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco Director of Cultural Affairs, Tom DeCaigny \u003ccite>(Photo: Chloe Veltman/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Many artists aren’t even in the financial position where they’re able to apply for a loan.

Because many artists have gigs on the side to pay the rent, like driving for a ride-sharing service or waiting tables, the designation has more to do with an applicant’s artistic resume than how much money he or she makes from an artistic practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Do they have a track record of exhibiting or showcasing creative work as an artist?” DeCaigny says. “So for visual artists, that would mean exhibitions at a gallery or perhaps a stint in a residency or a teaching commitment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, teachers became the first professional class to earn a low cost housing preference in San Francisco.

He has yet to make a public statement on the subject, but arts advocates are fired up about the possibility that a future ballot initiative could pass more easily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reaching 50 percent next time “seems like it’s very doable,” says Vinay Patel, executive director of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.apiculturalcenter.org/\">Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Patel says the first step of a new ballot proposition campaign is to find out if the arts community is ready to mobilize again. He says that thanks to Measure S, artists now have a better understanding of the political process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve talked to people in my community about this, and they’re all very excited,” says Patel. And this time, “they already know what it takes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moscone says the arts coalition is carefully considering the timing of another ballot run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You want to make the right move,” says Moscone. “You don’t want to just keep going after a ballot just to go after it — you want to win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of the time it takes to raise money and gather signatures, Moscone says the group needs to decide in the coming weeks whether to run on the June 2018 ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If indeed we were to go back to a ballot in June or November of next year,” says Moscone, “it would require immediate and swift action.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-800x78.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
