San Francisco Artists Mobilize for City's Homeless
Cities around the world clear homeless encampments in preparation of hosting major events. The City of San Francisco, California, did the same before the week-long Super Bowl activities in 2016. But some local artists banded together to address the city's homeless issue in a different way - to provide warmth but also invite conversation and create visibility for a community that most would rather not see. "Our goal is to use creativity to unite," says Annice Jacoby, founder of the Undercover project. "We’re making a visual statement, making a ceremony of care; it’s a mechanism to address this problem." The project has inspired efforts for compassionate connection with disenfranchised people around the world.
