Revitalizing SF Through the Arts: What Does That Look Like?

Go To Past Event
from Revitalizing SF Through the Arts: What Does That Look Like? held on

The use of art gained momentum during the 20th century with major movements such as the City Beautiful movement and the New Deal, which sought to beautify and revitalize urban areas through public art installations and other creative initiatives.

Today, art continues to play a critical role, especially with its potential to engage and inspire residents, attract tourists, and boost economic growth. How can the arts with all its potentials revitalize our San Francisco? 

Panelists will discuss the ways in which the arts can revive the city and serve as a model for other cities to follow.
