Student Organizations

Listen to live music, host a radio show, go to an exhibition, attend a lecture, join a band, or set up your own club. 

Student clubs and organizations at SFAI run the gamut from intellectual endeavors to social activities. If you don’t see a club or organization that interests you, form your own—the registration process is easy

The following organizations are now active for the 2021-2022 academic year. These groups contribute to the SFAI campus life through their activities, events, and programs. If you wish to be involved with a club, send an email to the listed email following the club description.

Film Society

The aim of the SFAI Film Society is to bring the community together around film and the cinematic arts. In addition to showing lesser known experimental and foreign film classics, the Film Society is a forum to showcase student works, explore the vibrant Bay Area film culture and receive hands-on training with equipment that will help one create their own masterpiece.

 

Organizer: Kyle Wilhite
Advisor: Orit Ben-Shitrit

Student-led Exhibition Spaces

Student Government 

The Student Government represents all undergraduate and graduate students presently enrolled at the San Francisco Art Institute. Its principal function is to enrich the student experience at SFAI by generating, communicating, and representing the collective views of the student body.

All students are invited to engage in the bimonthly meetings and participate in the administrative aspects of SFAI through the formulation of recommendations to the Board of Trustees, administration, and faculty.
