Hearts in San Francisco has been a sponsor-supported series of installations of heart sculptures in the Bay Area started in February 2004.

Over 100 heart sculptures by recognized and emerging artists appeared on sidewalks, plazas, parks, and street corners to celebrate the wide acceptance, tolerance and open-heartedness of the city.
