**Retired SFPD Officer Joe Lynch Selected for National Art Exhibition**

San Francisco, CA – Retired San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) Officer Joe Lynch has been selected to participate in the National Law Enforcement Officers Art Exhibition. Lynch's acrylic artwork, titled "Coffee Break," is one of just 50 pieces chosen from across the nation.
