The Vaillancourt Fountain, also known as "Quebec Libre!," is one of San Francisco’s most controversial and intriguing public art pieces, located in Justin Herman Plaza at the Embarcadero. Designed by Armand Vaillancourt in 1971, the massive, raw concrete fountain is a bold example of Brutalist architecture, standing in stark contrast to the waterfront’s more polished and modern surroundings. Its jagged, geometric blocks of cement rise into the air, creating a visual puzzle that draws you in for a closer look.
At night, the fountain takes on a new character. The harsh edges of the concrete blocks soften under the glow of the plaza’s lights, casting long shadows that emphasize the structure’s abstract forms. Originally designed to have water flowing through it, the fountain was intended to evoke nature’s raw power, with water cascading through its maze-like structure. However, it’s the interplay of light and shadow after dark that makes Vaillancourt Fountain a must-see for those exploring San Francisco at night.
Vaillancourt created this piece as a statement of artistic freedom, and its controversial nature—some have loved it, others have called for its removal—only enhances its mystique. Over the years, it has become a symbol of San Francisco's rebellious and avant-garde spirit, standing defiantly amid its critics. Whether you’re an admirer of Brutalism or not, the Vaillancourt Fountain continues to captivate as a piece of art that refuses to fade into the background.

The Bowers Museum:
Founded in 1936 by the City of Santa Ana through a bequest from Charles and Ada Bowers, the Bowers Museum is one of California's finest and Orange County's largest museums. In 1986, the museum closed its doors for a period of self-study. In response to community needs and input, it reopened in 1992 as a new cultural center, and expanded children's programming in 1994 with the opening of the Kidseum. The museum also recently celebrated the grand opening of the 30,000+ square-foot Dorothy and Donald Kennedy Wing in February 2007.
The Bowers has been voted "The Best Museum in Orange County" by the readers of The Orange County Register for 15 consecutive years.
The Bowers is accredited by the American Association of Museums, an honor only 5% of museums receive.
In the past 15 years the museum has increased its facility size from 7,000 square feet to its current size of 93,000+ square feet.
