The Doolan-Larson building is the big white building at the northwest corner of Haight and Ashbury Streets. Its former owner, Norman Larson, donated the building to San Francisco Heritage upon his death in 2018.
San Francisco Heritage launched a pilot program in late 2020 exploring the potential of the Doolan-Larson building as a center of artistic expression. Individual artists and groups have lived, worked, and performed in and around the building since then. More information on the program can be found here: https://www.haightandashbury.org/residencies . Information about some of the artists who have participated is here: https://www.haightandashbury.org/artists .
The current artist-in-residence is Stanley Mouse, who gained fame in the 1960s and 1970s for his psychedelic poster art. His art is on exhibit at the San Francisco Heritage Gallery, 1506 Haight Street, Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 6 pm through July 28, when his residency ends.
We have invited San Francisco Heritage and Stanley Mouse to our July meeting to provide further information about the gallery and the artist-in-residency program.
