Major artwork will proceed despite late funding cut
As world leaders from 21 countries-including U.S. President Joe Biden and Xi Jinping, President of the People's Republic of China-visit San Francisco, the monumental art installation called "Illuminate San Francisco" will emit a nightly canopy of light and joy above Market Street - the City's civic spine.
Due to increasing security costs, APEC planners were forced to cut funding for the planned laser installation. However, Illuminate decided to proceed independently and has launched a last-minute crowdfunding effort to cover the $150,000 cost of bringing this four-night spectacle to the City- and the world beyond.
