SFIAF & LCA LIVE PRESENT

AUDIOPHARMACY

Wednesday April 19, 7:00pm
McKenna Theater, San Francisco State University

SFIAF and the College of Liberal and Creative Arts at San Francisco State University present the renowned World Hip-Hop Ensemble and Cultural Community Arts Collective (and SFSU Alumni) Audiopharmacy. The group was invited to be the opening event for a new presenting series titled LCA - Live because they combined a proud association with the campus with the powerful and spiritual message that their live performances convey.

FREE! The LAST Last Supper Party
Saturday May 6, 6:00pm
1222 Sutter Street. SF CA 941009

It is simultaneously glorious, sad and true. After a successful year of performances at our office-cum-gallery-space hidden away in Polk Gulch, it has become obvious we have outgrown the room and we will have to find a larger venue for the 2023-24 season (suggestions welcome). As such, Saturday May 6 will be the last Last Supper Party at 1222 Sutter Street beneath the giant canvas that gave the series its name. Please join us for presentations by Nazelah Jamison and Hector, son of Hector as we make a final toast. And, as always, an open microphone will follow.

NOTE: There will also be a season-end celebration of the LSP Series at BRAVA Theater as part of the Festival on June 17. Details to follow!
