A new Market Street Poster Series features professional artists and formerly unhoused residents in San Francisco s Tenderloin district to amplify neighborhood voices.
The San Francisco Arts Commission invited artists to reconsider, respond to, and reimagine the idea of a public monument. In this second installment of the series, Skywatchers, a program of ABD Productions, expanded The Opulence Project, using the highly visible posters to extend its mission of challenging the kinds of stories traditionally memorialized in monuments, a news release stated.

The release noted that portrait subjects worked closely with Skywatchers creative leads Gabriel
