Umbrella Alley in Fisherman’s Wharf has reopened at our brand-new home, as we continue painting and building the next colorful chapter of this community art space.
📍 New Location: 366 Jefferson Street, San Francisco, CA 94133
Since opening in 2019, Umbrella Alley has become a must-see destination for visitors and locals alike—celebrated for its vibrant murals, community spirit, and Instagram-worthy art installations. Now, we’re excited to introduce Umbrella Alley 2.0. Twelve murals and interactive pieces are already complete, with more underway, and over the next 12–16 months, the Alley will grow into an even bigger, brighter, and more joyful art experience.

Murals by local artists already fill the space with color and creativity.
Interactive street art like the California Dreaming mural offers unforgettable photo ops.
Overhead installations are coming soon – colorful spinning umbrellas and a streamer ceiling will be added in Fall 2026, bringing back the playful, dream-like atmosphere you know and love.
Thank you for your continued love and support as we bring this new space to life. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a longtime fan, we can’t wait to welcome you back—with more color, more art, and even more joy.

The Greetings From San Francisco mural is coming back.
Artist Maxfield Bala originally created the large-scale postcard-style mural
at the first Umbrella Alley location, inspired by the classic “Greetings From” postcards of the 1940s and 1950s.
When Umbrella Alley moved, the original mural could not be saved and was ultimately painted over and destroyed. But the piece became such recognizable part of the Alley that we decided it deserved a second life.
A new version of the mural is planned for Fall 2026 at the new Umbrella Alley location in Fisherman’s Wharf.
Once repainted, the mural will again celebrate many of San Francisco’s best-known landmarks and icons, including the Golden Gate Bridge, City Hall, Coit Tower, Bay Bridge, Alcatraz, Ferry Building, cable cars, Painted Ladies, Lombard Street, and Palace of Fine Arts, along with additional details from around the city.
The new mural will be even larger, measuring approximately
14 feet tall by 27 feet wide.
Like the original, the new version will be designed as a giant vintage postcard — colorful, playful, and packed with San Francisco imagery — giving visitors another oversized photo backdrop at Umbrella Alley.
