PASSION PROJECTS SF | The Artist Behind the Effect

Passion Projects SF (PPSF) celebrates the personal art projects of world-class visual effects artists who have shaped iconic films and television. In a hybrid gallery and shop, we will showcase fine art, storytelling, and original creations that reveal creativity beyond the screen while connecting the Bay Area’s legacy of film innovation with its creative future.

PPSF provides a central space where artists can reconnect and the public can engage with the creativity behind film. Our collective strengthens San Francisco’s cultural fabric while offering inspiration, community, and pride. We will offer artist talks, classes and deep dives into the art and craft of visual effects.

Our story is just beginning - online for the time being, with a store in the works.

Please follow our progress - pop-up coming in 2026!
