Help Bring Light, Music, & Connection to San Francisco.

Illuminate’s work now reaches more than 20 million San Francisco residents and visitors, day and night.

You’ve likely seen or personally experienced many of our projects. Images of our installations are shared widely, reflecting San Francisco to the world in its most flattering light.

But few people, even locals, realize that projects such as The Bay Lights, the Golden Mile on JFK Promenade, the hundreds of free live concerts across the City, the lasers up Market Street and on iconic structures like Coit Tower, Sutro Tower and Grace Cathedral, all come from the same small local arts nonprofit.

Most striking, we do it all with zero corporate sponsorship. That means you’ll never see a logo on the side of the Bay Bridge. Or on anything we do. And we’ll never sell your name as part of a mailing list.

It’s all done through the culture of generosity. And this is where we need your help.

Your support of Illuminate will allow us to continue to bring beauty, light, joy, safety, music, and connection to San Francisco.

Being part of something much bigger than yourself is a human delight.

We can’t wait to share what’s coming in 2025.
