We hope you are healthy and successfully creating a new reality as we all navigate this strange, challenging time together. Heritage’s mission is certainly disrupted but we are forging ahead and adapting to the shelter-in-place era. Our nimble and resourceful staff are innovating new ways to foster community amid social distancing, while continuing to pursue an aspirational agenda for as we approach Heritage’s 50th anniversary in 2021.
In March, Heritage in the Neighborhoods kicked off in the Excelsior District. For the entire month, our social media pages spotlighted the buildings and businesses that define the neighborhood’s diverse, unheralded architectural and cultural identity. Although we were forced to postpone our Excelsior Heritage Night, Heritage quickly adapted by creating even more robust online content in the form of daily posts, with virtual town halls and live-streamed conversations being planned for the weeks ahead. Next up: Parkside and the Marina!
Fundamentally, Heritage’s mission is defined by, and dependent on, our community. We look forward to resuming our community-based programs, tours, and events as soon as possible. We will be regularly updating the Haas-Lilienthal House Tours page and the Events Calendar on our website. Please check back for current information.
If you have questions regarding the status of Heritage’s tours and programs as circumstances continue to develop, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@sfheritage.org.
Thank you for being part of Heritage’s community.
