ArtSpan is committed to cultivating a vibrant, accessible, and world-class art community in San Francisco and to promoting the city's unique creative energy locally and globally.

We are guided by the belief that artists play a vital role in society and that broad public engagement with their work is essential to defining a new cultural environment for our changing city.
Since 2001, Artspan's Art for City Youth Program has connected local working artists with under-served youth in San Francisco. Each year Art for City Youth provides free arts mentoring to public schools, serving over 800 elementary school students with art classes, guided learning in visual thinking strategies, and interactive tours of the San Francisco Open Studios Exhibition. Artspan offers public engagement with youth and families at events throughout the city.
San Francisco Open Studios is an annual, month-long event in October that showcases over 800 emerging and established San Francisco artists in their studios. ArtSpan publishes a printed Guide of artists with comprehensive online catalog. The event connects collectors with artists for engaging dialog and a glimpse into the life of the working artist. In addition to SF Open Studios, ArtSpan produces Exhibitions and Professional Development Workshops for Artists.
