More than 400 images are on view outdoors in the Presidio at four locations. The selections, picked by distinguished creators and community leaders, are from everyday park goers, kids, and even professional photographers. The exhibition captures the beauty of the great outdoors and the joy that time in nature can bring.

Golden Gate Bridge
Institute at the Golden Gate

A former program of the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, the Institute at the Golden Gate was conceived to incubate knowledge and innovation in parks. Embedded in one of the country’s most visited and influential national parks, we convened leaders and influencers to forge unconventional partnerships to reach beyond traditional park boundaries.
