I’m playing a fundraiser/party tomorrow night at Otis Lounge in downtown San Francisco. It’s part of a collaborative project I’m working on that explores connections between dance, music, and visual arts in the African Diaspora at the Museum of African Diaspora. More information on the project to come.
Here’s the press info on tomorrow’s party:
see. think. dance. @ MoAD Fundraiser/Launch
Wednesday, September 2nd ::: 6pm-12am
Otis ::: 25 Maiden Lane – SF ::: $10 suggested donation
BE Spontaneous.
READ this email, GRAB a friend, COME OUT to OTIS this Wednesday to support a different way of seeing + thinking about dance.
Intimate/ raw/ enlightened.
see. think. dance. + MoAD present a series of artists’ salons to reveal the creative process between dancer/choreographer and favored musician.
The series begins on September 17 featuring Muisi-kongo Malonga and Kiazi Malonga of Fua Dia Congo along with other choreographers upholding the early traditions of dance.
Each salon goes on to highlight a different facet of movement in the African aesthetic journeying from Afro-Brasilian and Congolese to Gospel and Jazz, and finally to Hip Hop and Grime.
REMEMBER…
Before there were stages, there were dance floors.
We invite all dance aficionados to join us on September 2nd to discover their own connections to movement through the global sounds of Be Brown (The People) and Chief Boima (The High Life, Descendants United).
Chat with the artists before they perform, learn something new about the Museum of the African Diaspora, revel in the rich + varied overlapping cultures of the Bay Area.
