Join the San Francisco General Hospital Foundation to celebrate the 2025 Hearts in San Francisco that support excellence in patient care and innovation at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center.

In 2025, 22 artists have been selected to participate in the 2025 Hearts in San Francisco public art project including two Large Heart sculptures, 10 Table Top Heart sculptures, and 10 Mini Heart sculptures.

The latest Hearts in San Francisco Heart Sculptures were unveiled on January 13, 2025 and will be on display at the Ferry Building through February 3, 2025.

Designed by local Bay Area artists, these one-of-a-kind pieces of art will be auctioned off to benefit the Hospital on February 6, 2025, at Hearts in SF 2025.

Hearts in San Francisco sculptures can be spotted throughout the City and beyond. All of the ‘heartworks’ are privately owned and some are in easily discovered locations, such as the lobbies and storefronts of our generous corporate supporters, others are at the homes of private individuals. 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 – resides permanently on the corner of Powell and Post Streets in San Francisco’s Union Square. Enjoy!

Golden Gate Park’s gorgeous magnolias are expected to have their peak bloom a little later in February

Thanks to San Francisco Botanical Garden for sharing the news that the first of their beautiful magnolias are blooming.

One of San Francisco’s most breathtaking natural marvels, the annual bloom of more than 200 rare and historic magnolias with trees reaching 80 feet, is typically at its peak from January through March at the SF Botanical Garden.

Velvety silver buds on the often bare branches of these elegant trees, many rare and historic, open into dazzling pink, magenta, and white flowers, filling the wintery garden with dramatic splashes of color and sweetly fragrant scents.
