A world-renowned public art project that raises critical support for our city's only public hospital, Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center (ZSFG).

20+ years of Hearts in SF
500+ hearts created by Bay Area artists
$40M+ raised to date
100,000+ neighbors cared for each year

We left our hearts in San Francisco.

Each year, the Foundation commissions one-of-a-kind heart sculptures created by local artists. After the sculptures are displayed in San Francisco for the public to enjoy, each is auctioned in support of ZSFG. The sculpture auction makes Hearts in SF, the Foundation’s annual gala, a truly unique event, bringing together art, health care, and the support of an entire community.

For over 20 years, these sculptures have become a symbol of San Francisco’s support for the innovative, compassionate care provided to over 100,000 of our neighbors each year, most of whom are underinsured or uninsured. To date, Hearts in SF has raised more than $40 million to provide accessible, equitable, exceptional health care for all.

Map of Hearts

Hearts in SF Sculptures can be spotted throughout the City and beyond! Nearly 100 of these ‘heartworks’ are on display in parks, lobbies, and lawns for visitors and natives alike to enjoy. Happy Heart hunting!

Out of respect for the privacy of our donors and supporters, we are unable to release a list of private locations for the Hearts. But if you look closely around the City, we’re sure you’ll be able to spot a few. The most recognizable Heart – Tony Bennett’s America’s Greatest City By the Bay – now resides at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. Enjoy!
