836M is a nonprofit arts organization with a gallery space in San Francisco. Our mission is to emphasize the creative process and ignite people’s hearts and minds through live artistic and cultural experiences. We create programming that provokes strong reactions, lively debate, deep curiosity, and discovery, and through doing so, we hope to open minds and raise people’s awareness. Our programming celebrates bringing people together to share varying perspectives. We host gallery exhibitions, artist residencies, documentary screenings, an ephemeral mural program, a concert series, and innovative partnerships with other arts and cultural organizations in the Bay Area. 836M is one of the partner organizations of NextWorld, a global organization combining investments and philanthropic activities under one brand to manage capital to benefit future generations.
​March 3 – May 17 | Opening March 13
UJDC’s residency program at 836M, 
#DeafWoke: Communication in Conversation 
​will center on communication and conversation, celebrating meaningful dialogue between Deaf and hearing communities through accessible and immersive discussions. The project explores how different artistic mediums—dance, painting, sculpture, and music—can foster communication, build bridges, and transcend traditional barriers.  At the heart of the residency is #DeafWoke: Communication in Conversation, an extension of Antoine Hunter’s acclaimed live-stream show, #DeafWoke, which has sparked global dialogue between Deaf and hearing artists. These interviews will take place in person for the first time, offering an intimate opportunity to share stories and experiences while showcasing artists’ work—paintings, sculptures, music, and literature—that communicate Deaf culture, accessibility, and shared challenges.
