Celebrate with CAST & the SoMa community who are dreaming of new ways to design artist-centered, community-driven spaces on Minna Street.
Join artists, cultural leaders, community members, urban planners, and residents to explore the creative ways in which San Francisco’s SoMa community has come together to collectively design and reimagine the SoMa neighborhood and in particular, 447 Minna.
After a five-month design process with the Dreaming Spaces Steering Committee and a Community Design Day with the greater SoMa community, we joyfully honor their visionary ideas and are excited to showcase some of the design proposals!

What is Dreaming Spaces?
Dreaming Spaces is a community program sponsored and hosted by Community Arts Stabilization Trust (CAST), with a goal to increase the agency of artists and community members in making decisions about creating and keeping space.
Initially developed in Oakland as a response to the pandemic in 2020, CAST continued the effort in San Francisco in April 2022. Together with artists, cultural workers, and community residents in SoMa, CAST asked participants to envision what can be done presently to create welcoming, inclusive spaces and share art in safe environments. After a series of community-building design workshops, this group, along with designers, architects, and city leaders, participated in a design charrette to envision and plan for what community spaces might look like in our current pandemic-led physical climate.
