About the Pink Triangle on Twin Peaks

The Pink Triangle installation appears annually each June to coincide with San Francisco Pride. The symbol reclaims the pink triangle once used to persecute gay men during World War II and transforms it into a message of remembrance, equality, and strength.

Constructed from large panels placed carefully along the hillside, the installation spans a significant portion of Twin Peaks and can be seen from multiple neighborhoods across San Francisco. Throughout Pride Month, it stands as a visible reminder of the city’s enduring commitment to inclusion.
