The Firehouse is a real place located in San Francisco. It’s also a place for the imagination, where artists, activists and educators are invited to be in conversation with one another and the world. In person, online and through their creations and activities, residents embody varieties of creative community.
It begins with the surprise of entering.
The Firehouse is a sanctuary space that adapts itself alchemically to the needs its guests bring forth. It is not a space that should be precisely defined; rather it is a sacred container made of light and shadow, silence and breath, memory, possibility, and presence.
It offers a welcome, a refuge, a conversation, an embrace, a reckoning. A continuous threshold, it will never be the same space twice. In this lies its power to transform its visitors, and through them, their world.
