Respect History, Make History. SOMA PILIPINAS is in the news!
San Francisco, CA - October 14, 2025 – SOMA Pilipinas Cultural Heritage District and the South of Market Community Action Network (SOMCAN) spearheaded a successful community initiative to designate the culturally and historically significant Mint Mall and Hall, located at 951-957 Mission St, as a city landmark. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the Mint Mall and Hall’s landmark designation on October 7th, 2025, just in time for Filipino American History Month (FAHM). The building’s landmark designation report will also be the first of its kind written in both English and Filipino languages.
By the end of this year, there will be over 40 pieces of public art in the cultural district
SOMA Pilipinas is on a mission to bring the streets of downtown San Francisco’s Filipino Cultural Heritage District alive with vibrant color—and soon they’ll unveil the most precious work in their growing collection of public art.
