About our Artist in Residence (AIR) Program
A Center for Artistic Expression
In late 2020, San Francisco Heritage launched a pilot program exploring the potential of the Doolan-Larson Building as a center of artistic expression. Individual artists and arts groups have lived, worked, and performed in, on, and around, the historic residence and storefronts ever since.

With the success of these residencies, SF Heritage is working in collaboration with community members and arts practitioners to design a permanent artist-in-residence program. Draft goals include interpretation of the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood and the Counterculture; promotion of SF Heritage's mission to enhance and preserve San Francisco’s unique architectural and cultural history; and furthering racial and social equity through the arts.
