Central City SRO Collaborative, the Tenderloin Housing Clinic, and Tenderloin Museum are pleased to present Art Wraps for the Heart of the Tenderloin, a collection of custom-designed vinyl art wraps that will encase 20 SFMTA traffic control signal boxes and 22 city trash cans throughout the Tenderloin. The project, which covers various streets within the parameters of Golden Gate Avenue, Larkin Street, O’Farrell Street, and Taylor Street, will showcase work directly influenced by the vibrant and storied neighborhood it seeks to illuminate.
Tenderloin Museum is proud to host the opening reception for Art Wraps for the Heart of the Tenderloin on October 12th 5:30-9pm with a 6-7pm walking tour of Art Wraps, led by long-time Tenderloin Museum tour guide and neighborhood advocate, Pam Coates. Join us to see the transformative artwork and hear more about the inspiration and connection to our neighborhood from the artists themselves.
