YBCA: ConVerge will present Raquel Gutiérrez of the new YBCA In Community program and her karaoke star friends. YBCA In Community pairs professional artists with community members in three Bay Area neighborhoods to create art together!
Join a who’s who of Bay Area community-based artists, community organizers, and scholars as they tackle their favorite songs through Critical Karaoke! Each artist will speak about a song as it plays, with approaches and topics as varied as the artists and songs themselves. Meet and mingle with community partners from Soma, Mission & Excelsior, and West Oakland; learn more about the dynamic work happening in those communities; and listen to the range of artists participating and presenting in the activity of Critical Karaoke. Featuring Jaime Cortez, Xandra Ibarra, Carrie Leilam Love, Perra Pumps, and many more!
The YBCA:ConVerge series is a free monthly public gathering featuring creative and generative social art practices. ConVerge is where community and innovative multi- and inter-disciplinary arts practices come together in our free and public spaces in a fluid, interactive, experimental format designed to engage audiences. YBCA's Grand Lobby and Room for Big Ideas will come alive during ConVerge events with social art, live music, and inspiring curated performances, as well as drinks prepared by YBCA mixologists.
