Yerba Buena Center for the Arts

Yerba Buena Center for the Arts will implement Neighborhood Commissions, a new program designed to provide engagement and learning opportunities for diverse community members of all ages. Local artists and designers will lead commissions connected to the target neighborhoods, with a focus on Black, indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) artists whose practices are centered on driving community regeneration. They will conduct a series of workshops and design charrettes and create and install community-designed art installations in neighborhood settings. Community members will guide the creative process and be engaged in stewardship of the new neighborhood installations.
