In all, the collection comprises more than 80 pieces in a diversity of styles and media by artists of local, national, and international acclaim. The works were commissioned in accordance with San Francisco’s percent-for-art ordinance, which provides for an art enrichment allocation equivalent to 2% of the construction cost of a new or renovated civic structure.
