On the first Saturday of every even month of the year\, the MAPP transforms ordinary spaces\, such as private garages\, gardens\, living rooms\, studios\, street corners\, and small businesses into pop-up performance and exhibition sites for a day/night of intimate-scale artistic and cultural exchange among a kaleidoscope of individuals and communities.  Due to COVID-19 we have temporarily changed this dynamic program from an onsite to an online series. Thanks to the mastery and innovation of the presenting artists and curatorial vision we are pleased that the kaleidoscope of cultural exchange continues to be an incredibly enriching experience for the presenter and the viewer. We look forward to the days that we can safely present at our neighborhood venue and we are grateful for everyone’s ingenuity in making the online presentations meaningful and unique experiences.   \nThis program is funded by California Arts Council Impact Project Grant and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Relief Fund and SF Art Reopening Fund.  \nWe will continue our work in presenting unique artistry to the communities that we serve. \n RED POPPY MAPP TEAM: \nCurator | Artistic Director | Managing director: Dina Zarif  \nPR and Digital Marketing: Jennie D. Legary \n“SOUL TEARS” INSTALLATION | INDIRA URRUTIA\n \nIndira Urrutia\nInstallation “Soul Tears” \nIndira Urrutia is a Chilean-born interdisciplinary artist of international projection with a very personal style defined by organic elements combined in a perfect harmony that prints beautiful emotions in her work\, allowing the audience to experience different sensations and movements while watching. \nThe Pandemia has kept her stock in Barcelona for three years\, where her work inhabits time\, silence\, and memory\, where weaving interacts to create a surface\, skin\, and little by little\, a presence manifest. \nWeaving is an organic and metaphorical expression and a meditation on the nature of life. We are all bound together\, interwoven and interconnected\, in ways that we overlook in our modern lives. \nHer work has been exhibited internationally in group and individual presentations\, including The de Young Museum\, Root Division\, Mission Cultural Center\, San Francisco Symphony\, San Francisco USA; National Council of Culture and the Arts\, Pablo Neruda House Museum\, Chile; Invited to the VII Biennial of Art and Design\, Valencia\, Spain\, Real Cercle Artistic de Barcelona\, El Borsí\, Barcelona\, Spain\, Fontecchio International Airport Gallery\, Italy. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS\n \nPHOTOGRAPHY\nMarc Hors\n“Nazavzhdy” Para Siempre / Forever \n \nThe escalation of the international armed conflict in Ukraine has caused civilian casualties and destruction of civilian infrastructure\, forcing people to flee their homes seeking safety\, protection\, and assistance. Millions of refugees from Ukraine have crossed borders into neighboring countries\, and many more have been forced to move inside the country.\n“The situation is disconcerting\, this is what several Ukrainian women I talk to are telling me. They agree in shrinking the importance of material belongings\, including the roof under which they raised the children who accompany them\, and which\, as they can learn from the news\, has now turned into ruins. The real heartbreaker has been to leave their husbands fighting with rudimentary resources against a Goliath armed outright. The two typical words in any farewell “see you soon” have been replaced by “love you forever”. The chances of surviving are swinging at the rhythm of the bombs and the decisions taken by political leaders coerced by economic interests.”\nThis series of photographs were taken at the Polish border of Medyka and the town of Przemyšl during the month of March 2022. Photographs that bring us closer to a reality that\, however distant it may seem to us geographically\, puts into perspective the fragility of the social fabric that led us to develop as a civilized species. \nFormat: Fine art prints on cotton paper Size: 13 x 19” – 17 x 22” \n  \nPERFORMANCES\nMy-Linh Le\nSolo dance performance \n\nMy-Linh Le is a second-generation Vietnamese American dancer\, award-winning choreographer\, multidisciplinary storyteller\, and former environmental attorney.

This will be a concert full of surprises for both the audience and performers. \nFeaturing:\nScott Foster – Guitar\nSheldon Brown – Saxophones \n\n\n\nFriday\, August 10\, 2023\nTime: 7:00 pm doors\, 7:30 pm show\nAdmission: (Online) $15 – $30 / (Door) $35 general \n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE ARTIST:  \n\nComposer and woodwind instrumentalist Sheldon Brown has been active on the San Francisco Bay Area creative music scene and beyond for over 30 years. In addition to performing his original music with Sheldon Brown Group\, Brown has performed with a diverse array of people and groups including Anthony Braxton\, Ben Goldberg\, Omar Sosa\, Club Foot Orchestra\, Marcus Shelby Jazz Orchestra\, Clarinet Thing and Bobby Weir. His extended original composition Blood of the Air (funded by Chamber Music America and Inter Music) premiered at the 32nd Annual San Francisco Jazz Festival\, and was featured at the 16th Annual Outsound Festival. Most recently Brown performed and composed music for Club Foot Orchestra’s score for the classic silent film\, Pandora’s Box\, at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland. \nScott Foster has been a fixture on San Francisco jazz scene for over two decades. He can be heard performing regularly with his own group and as a sideman with the Americano Social Club\, B3B4 and multitude of the bay area’s finest musicians at wide variety of venues. Scott Foster’s CD’s “Basement Sinfonietta”\, “Go Small” and “Night Blooming Jazzmen” are currently available. Additionally Scott is the Performing Arts Chair and Jazz Band Director at the Urban School of San Francisco. \n\n\nJAZZ IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: \nJazz in the Neighborhood works to improve the economics of jazz performance in the Bay Area by presenting affordable concerts\, paying musicians a guaranteed wage\, and supporting the work of established and aspiring jazz artists. \nArt • Equity • Access. \nART • Jazz is often called the one truly American art form. We honor that legacy while supporting exploration and new approaches to the genre. Jazz in the Neighborhood events provide a space for jazz musicians to be creative\, spontaneous\, and expressive in their interpretation of music. Our Emerging Artists program nurtures the upcoming generation of jazz musicians through mentoring and opportunities to learn on the bandstand. \nEQUITY • Jazz musicians have long been participants in the “gig” economy. Very few have the security of regular employment playing jazz\, especially with the decline of union representation. For many\, the economics of jazz performance has become a cut of ticket sales\, a tip jar\, maybe a free meal\, and often a day job. This kind of remuneration hardly seems fair given the knowledge\, skill\, and practice that’s required to become a jazz musician. So unlike many concert producers\, Jazz in the Neighborhood guarantees musicians a fair wage when they perform at our events. We encourage all venues to join us in paying a guaranteed fair wage to jazz musicians. \nACCESS • We believe that everyone should be able to enjoy live jazz in a comfortable\, acoustically appropriate setting at an affordable price. Many of our shows are free. When events have an admission charge\, we keep the price reasonable and never turn anyone away for lack of funds. Please take a look at our events blog and calendar page for upcoming concerts. \nhttps://jazzintheneighborhood.org/about/mission/\nhttps://sheldonbrownmusic.com/home \n\n\nPREVIEW THE MUSIC: \n\n\n\n\n \n\n \nEVENT DETAILS\nFriday\, August 10th\, 2023\nTime: 7:00 pm doors\, 7:30 pm show\nAdmission: (Online) $15 – $30 / (Door) $35 general \nNote: A limited quantity of additional tickets will be available for purchase at the door unless otherwise noted on the Facebook event page that the show is SOLD OUT. \nPurchase advance tickets for this event \nNote: Purchasing an advance ticket guarantees admission but does not guarantee a seat.
