3 Pillars is an artist owned small business that promotes local artists.  It all started with the opportunity provided by the JCBD Heart of Jtown Project to open an artist pop up shop.  As we went through the process, we noticed a lack of art that represented the Asian American experience in the Bay Area.  Many people gravitated toward designs inspired by Asian American culture, San Francisco nostalgia, and Japantown.  Our products are carefully selected to ensure they align with these sentiments.
