Project Description

A San Francisco-based arts institution opened to the public in 1993, the mission of Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (YBCA) is to generate culture that moves people. Rooted in the belief that artists are essential catalysts for equity, justice, wellbeing and social change, YBCA’s driving purpose is to empower artists working in service of their communities. Through supporting the development and presentation of new artist-led projects and prototypes, creating employment opportunities, documenting and sharing impacts in communities, piloting new investment and economic advancement programs, participating in advocacy efforts and continually engaging the wider community in all of our work, YBCA supports artists to use their creative, social and civic power to drive community regeneration. Through our regional and national leadership, YBCA is dedicated to addressing the most urgent challenges of our times and focused on advancing our city and the Bay Area region with a commitment to racial, economic, health, and climate justice.
