Where Art Lives is a program that uses arts education to explore the issues of graffiti, vandalism, and public art with young people in San Francisco.

We would like to partner with educators in San Francisco public schools or after-school programs with a focus on making learning more relevant and meaningful for young people.

Uphill Arts, the San Francisco Arts Commission, and San Francisco Public Works want to support the creativity of youth in our city while making sure that everyone knows about the laws and rights of artists when it comes to public art and vandalism. Artists have a variety of rights to protect and profit from their creations, so long as they are not messing with someone else's property. Art can be uplifting to a community.

We especially want to provide arts to students who might not otherwise have access to arts education.

Young Artists of San Francisco:
We want to see your art and hear your opinions!

All SFUSD and Five Keys Charter School students are encouraged to participate.
