The Tenderloin continues to have a history as a unique hub in San Francisco for artistic expression to grow. To celebrate our home, CounterPulse and SAFEhouse Arts have begun planning The Tenderloin Arts Festivalwhich will match local artists with site specific locations including lobbies, landmarks, and performance spaces across the neighborhood in an effort to strengthen the creative and cultural intersections that makes the Tenderloin unique and to fortify stronger interdependent connections between artists, the Tenderloin community, its inhabitants as well as the organizations that exist within it. This Festival is an opportunity to rejuvenate and celebrate the vibrant spirit and history that is the Tenderloin and it is our intention to highlight the many unique non-traditional spaces and people who should be celebrated in this neighborhood everyday.
