Thank you for making The People's Palace a success! 


We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this project so meaningful — from all of our artistic collaborators, our funders, the staff at City Hall, and our beloved community who attended and joined us. 


Co-presented by Dancers' Group and Zaccho Dance Theatre, The People's Palace was a special 3-day artistic intervention with San Francisco City Hall’s Beaux-Arts Roman and Greek iconography. Aerialists and performers interacted with the architecture and large scale projections, transforming these symbols into new, more inclusive narratives that more accurately reflect San Francisco's diverse and dynamic cultures and community. 


Thank you so much for attending this free performance! Your generous post-show, tax-deductible donations will directly support the creative work of our collaborators.
