The San Francisco Arts Commission invites artists and artist teams residing in the United States to submit qualifications for the 2026 Art on Market Street Poster Series. The 2026 Program will feature the work of four artists/artist teams with each series on view for a period of three months.The 2026 Art on Market Poster Series, titled Now & Then: Living Memories, will focus on previously unrecorded, newly unearthed & unconventional San Francisco histories. The name of the series is taken from a 2017 essay by writer, historian and activist Rebecca Solnit, in which she argues for “more history, not less.” Artists are encouraged to use primary sources, such as: libraries, archives, oral histories, historical societies & museums, public records, etc. to create a cohesive series uncovering overlooked histories and memorializing new histories. This project intersects with the continued work of SFAC’s Mellon-Grant funded Shaping Legacy program.
