San Francisco’s grand tradition of public art—both officially sanctioned and otherwise—has turned the city into a grand, technicolor canvas, and nowhere is this more spectacular than the Mission murals.
Street art abounds in San Francisco but it’s at its most concentrated in the Mission District. Here, several small alleys have become magnets for artists creating colorful murals, many of which have themes of social justice and Latino heritage.
Run by Lisa Brewer, a powerhouse in the local graffiti scene, this one-of-a-kind art gallery supports the local street art community by selling really dope pieces, and giving an unheard of percentage directly to the artists.
