The mission of the Tenderloin Museum (TLM) is to promote the history and character of San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood by offering education, artistic and charitable activities that support the neighborhood’s current vibrancy, future potential, & economic development. To do this we employ a three-pronged approach: a critically-acclaimed permanent history exhibition, community-driven programs and walking tours, and an art gallery showcasing Tenderloin artists. These efforts bolster its current vibrancy, unlock future potential, and stimulate economic development. Together with our community, we strive to deepen our understanding of the Tenderloin's history, reimagine our collective future, and support our unique and resilient neighborhood.This year marks a transformative moment for the Tenderloin Museum—and for the city of San Francisco. At a time when marginalized communities face mounting political and social challenges, the Tenderloin stands as a beacon of resilience, revitalization, and growth.Your support fuels more than just exhibitions and programs—it supports the heart of a neighborhood that has long amplified underrepresented voices and inspired movements for equity and justice. At this pivotal moment in history, the Tenderloin’s story mirrors the challenges and opportunities facing our city and nation at large. Together, we can ensure that the Tenderloin remains a thriving cultural cornerstone, inspiring the next generation of activists, artists, and community leaders. Join us in celebrating the Tenderloin’s past, present, and future—and in strengthening its legacy for years to come.
