San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 15, 2008 -- In conjunction with the San Francisco Arts Commission celebrating 40 years of Neighborhood Arts, Academy of Art University Graduate Fine Art Sculpture students participating in a Site Specific Public Art course created dazzling installation art around the exterior of the newly renovated Bayview Opera House and Ruth Williams Memorial Theatre.

Cancel opened "Unveiling the Future," a full afternoon of festivities featuring the unveiling of the historic Bayview Opera House's beautifully renovated facade.
As a part of his welcoming address, Mayor Newsom cited the superb contributions of outdoor public sculpture by ten Academy of Art University School of Fine Art Sculpture graduate students for the celebration of the Bayview Opera House's vital role in community arts. Mayor Newsom also commended the Academy of Art University for their strong commitment to creating public art for disadvantaged communities in San Francisco.
