In those early years, we supported bold, new performances that pushed the boundaries of creative expression. Immersing ourselves in the local arts community, we listened to the needs of our grantees and expanded our grantmaking through innovative partnerships and initiatives designed to help arts organizations overcome structural and financial challenges. By 2016, our Arts program had solidified its reach, supporting inspirational artists in translating their vision into tangible expression. Working with our partners, local artists and arts organizations, we are helping to assure that the Bay Area continues to thrive as one of the most culturally dynamic communities in the world.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;section&#8221; prev_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; next_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243;][et_pb_row make_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; use_custom_width=&#8221;off&#8221; width_unit=&#8221;on&#8221; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|&#8221; allow_player_pause=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method=&#8221;on&#8221; make_equal=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_1=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method_1=&#8221;off&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/krfoundation.org\/year-in-review\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/arts2.jpg&#8221; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;off&#8221; use_overlay=&#8221;off&#8221; animation=&#8221;off&#8221; sticky=&#8221;off&#8221; align=&#8221;left&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_duration=&#8221;1000ms&#8221; animation_intensity_slide=&#8221;50%&#8221; show_bottom_space=&#8221;on&#8221; \/][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Caption&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;right&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Arial||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#006666&#8243; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-60px|||&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;border-radius: 20px;||z-index: 1000;&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;40px|30px|10px|10px&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;0.8em&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;0.8&#8243; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Eye Zen Presents \u201cRainbow Logic: Arm in Arm with Remy Charlip.\u201d\u00a0 Photo credit: Robbie Sweeny<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row make_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; use_custom_width=&#8221;off&#8221; width_unit=&#8221;on&#8221; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|120px||120px&#8221; allow_player_pause=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method=&#8221;on&#8221; make_equal=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_1=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method_1=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;|50px||50px&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|0px||0px&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Our Commitment to the Bay Area Arts Community&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; module_class=&#8221;header arts&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Our Commitment to the Bay Area Arts Community<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Copy&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#006666&#8243; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Very passionate and inspired people, artists are often impacted by cultural forces, such as economic pressures and the Bay Area real estate affordability crisis.

In partnership with the real estate consulting experts from the Northern California Community Loan Fund, CAST launched Keeping Space \u2013 Oakland, a financial and technical assistance program to help arts organizations facing displacement. The initiative also seeded a capital fund enabling CAST to launch a real estate acquisition program for arts and cultural organizations, and funded a policy position within the City of Oakland that will focus on creating and preserving arts and cultural spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Our relationship with CAST began in 2013 when the Foundation made a $5 million grant over five years to establish the organization. The Rainin Foundation is playing an important role in addressing arts displacement in San Francisco and now Oakland to protect our valued arts and cultural assets.

Our first foray into public art was funding Light up Central Market, an original project that included an interactive bench and platform called \u201cBlock by Block.\u201d We saw and understood the impact rapid change was having on San Francisco\u2019s Central Market neighborhood, and we\u2014and our partners\u2014believed the community would benefit from art that brought people together. Collectively, we felt a public art installation was a risk worth taking.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love the way we responded when the public art project we supported didn\u2019t go the way we hoped it would,\u201d said Jennifer Rainin, PhD, Rainin Foundation&#8217;s Chief Executive Officer. \u201cI&#8217;m proud of the way our team communicated to the field and the community what we learned and why we\u2019re evolving as we are.\u201d Read the <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@KR_Foundation\/how-public-art-exposed-class-tensions-in-san-francisco-453b387959ea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">series of conversations<\/a> about art, class and race that emerged from \u201cBlock by Block,\u201d and why this was an important moment for the Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row make_fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; use_custom_width=&#8221;off&#8221; width_unit=&#8221;on&#8221; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;off&#8221; allow_player_pause=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method=&#8221;on&#8221; make_equal=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_1=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method_1=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|50px|0px|50px&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;|20px|0px|20px&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|10px|0px|10px&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Quote&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; module_class=&#8221;quote&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Block by Block provoked a lot of really interesting conversations in the city.
