Downtown SF Scavenger Hunt: "I Found My Heart in San Francisco"

Here's a new way to see downtown! The Hearts in San Francisco project was created by San Francisco General Hospital in 2004. Every year, they commission and auction off a new set of hearts to support accessible and equitable health care for all in our city. Downtown SF is proud to be home to five Hearts in San Francisco figures that are living in public spaces. Your mission is to find and take a selfie with all five hearts. Don’t forget to fuel up for your hunt with coffee, pastries, and lunch from one of our many world-class cafes along the way! For a list of tasty spots, visit downtownsf.org.

The "I Found My Heart in San Francisco" Scavenger Hunt is easy to play:

1. Study the hearts on the cover page
2. Use your favorite search engine to find the locations
3. Take a selfie or group photo with each heart
4. Once you have all five images, post them to your Instagram using #Ifoundmyheartinsf and tag us @sf_downtown
5. We'll send you the official commemorative sticker

TIP: Check opening hours of each location before you head out!
