The way people enjoy parks is as diverse as we are human.nnThe My Park Moment Photo Show celebrates our local and national parks, and the great memories and diverse experiences we all have in them. It turns the microphone over to people from communities across the Bay Area and beyond to share what makes parks special to them. This large-scale, outdoor exhibition is made up of 400 photos shared by a large and diverse group of people, including everyday park goers, teenagers, and professional photographers. Hand-picked by a distinguished group of creators and community leaders from thousands of submissions, these beautiful, inspiring images capture the beauty of the great outdoors and the joy that time in nature can bring. The show invites one and all to explore, celebrate, and reflect on the role parks play in our lives.nnThis Education Resource Guide accompanies the My Park Moment exhibition on view at the Presidio. You might use this guide as an introduction to the exhibition, as a follow-up to your visit, or as a virtual way to experience the work of these artists. The introductory questions invite you to explore and discuss the exhibition. Individual artist pages for the 4 Visual Story Award winners u2014 Sheilby Macena, Yuxing Liu, Marissa Leshnov, and Francess Santos u2014 include project descriptions, artist bios, guiding questions, and more.nnThe guide is organized as a scavenger hunt across four sections of the exhibition u2014 Crissy Field East, Main Post East, Main Post West, and Crissy Field West u2014 each with its own set of prompts. Crissy Field East: Where are people connecting and engaging with the land? Where do you see bliss? Which images evoke gratitude? How does nature provide healing and care?

Crissy Field West: How do the outdoors create space for interaction and connection? Find an image that draws you in u2014 what do you see and feel?
