Community Survey
As part of the community engagement process, SF Parks Alliance invited neighbors to take a survey providing input on the mural artists, locations, and more. Over 500 people took the survey, you can read through some of our key takeaways here!
Community Leaders
Installing 10 street murals in a few months is a tall task. Luckily, Slow Streets, Fast Friends is a group project. While SF Parks Alliance is leading the big picture planning of the project, the nitty gritty is being led by the communities that surround the Slow Streets. In particular, Slow Street stewards (folks who have taken on leadership roles with their streets) are making things happen. From gathering feedback to putting paint on the ground, meet the stewards leading each street.
Community Outreach Timeline
Since SFMTA launched San Francisco’s first Slow Streets in 2020, SF Parks Alliance has been working with city agencies and slow streets neighbors to make these spaces safe, community oriented hubs that residents feel ownership of. Currently, we’re working on installing these 10 ground murals on Slow Streets, but over the last four years we’ve also secured funding for these Streets, envisioned a citywide network of Slow Streets, and so much more!
