The California Historical Society in collaboration with the California Exhibition Resources Alliance presents the premiere showing of the traveling exhibition 'Hobos to Street People: Artists' Responses to Homelessness from the New Deal to the Present.' This timely exhibition features the works of more than 30 artists working over the last 75 years to document the tragedy of homelessness and the government's role in the crisis. Through painting, printmaking, photography, and mixed media, Depression-era and contemporary artists offer glimpses of life on the street and show many similarities between the eras.
