The Homeless Garden Project Store presents May First Friday at the Homeless Garden Project Store on May 3rd from 5-8 pm. The First Friday artist will be Sylvia Valentine and we will be offering samples, drinks and more!

More about Sylvia Valentine:

"My photos reflect what my heart connects with in the moment. I love capturing the Spirit of a place, experimenting with different angles and light to explore a unique perspective.

I got the photography bug 15 years ago on a month long trip to New Zealand. I’ve enjoyed sharing my photos in Open Studios, galleries and retail stores ever since. I love the magic of creating a hidden gem in something ordinary, and capturing the beauty of a moment…from a drive around town to an international adventure. I’m honored to receive the 2023 CA Arts Council Fellowship Award and to be voted Best Photographer locally for 3 years.

Last year I published my first photography book, "Sanctuary: A Portal to Presence" which combines poems and quotes by famous authors and new voices, to match the essence in each image.

I believe art and nature are healing medicine. I hope my photography connects you more deeply with yourself and others, creating a moment of silence and sanctuary."
