About Us

A civic group of private, public, neighborhood and arts organizations have gathered to launch a public art initiative in the SF Downtown area, called ACED: Arts, Celebrate, Elevate, Downtown. ACED is working to bring inspiring and expansive public art experiences to the downtown area to support local artists and attract residents, commuters and tourists to the area. 

This collaborative is fiscally sponsored by SF Parks Alliance and has launched a pilot initiative in Summer 2023 featuring a mural at Commercial and Leidesdorff in the Financial District neighborhood. If the pilot initiative is deemed successful, the group will consider expanding the effort into a broader public arts initiative.
