SUMMARY:October 3rd MAPP (Online): Building Community Resilience Through the Arts
DESCRIPTION:Click here on the date of the event to see the live performance streaming Live on Facebook. \nLaunched in 2003\, the Mission Arts & Performance Project (MAPP) is a homegrown bi-monthly\, multidisciplinary\, intercultural happening that takes place in the Mission District of San Francisco. 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. This program is funded by the California Arts Council Local Impact Grant. We are excited and grateful to continue our work in presenting unique artistry to the communities that we serve. \nIn an effort to continue presenting this deeply important program\, Red Poppy Art House is presenting our third online MAPP. Visual Art workshop and performances live stream from artist’s homes to your homes on October 3rd\, 2020. \nNow\, more than ever\, we need your support to continue facilitating relationships between the artists and our community\, and building a sonic bridge between today’s challenging time and a brighter future.

Her work is about developing consensus on solutions to the homeless crisis centered on the experience and expertise of those who have survived or are still living without housing. Excellent meeting facilitation\, policy development\, messaging expertise\, and unsticking ambivalence and entrenched mindsets. Jennifer is always learning from the brilliance around me and knows how to stay positive. Adept at moving controversy to collective problem-solving. Working in collaboration with many others has led to literally thousands of people in SF stabilizing in housing\, rising out of poverty\, averting homelessness\, and addressing the many side effects of homelessness in order to flourish. However\, due to rising rents\, alongside immoral inaction on the part of policymakers\, her work has a long way to go. Urgent meaningful action is what she works for. \n  \nONLINE AUCTION\n \nArt Auction 20\, Transforming Art into Action will feature over 100 pieces of art\, taking place online starting October 1st and ending October 8th.  Many of the art pieces will be displayed in storefronts in the Mission District\, and supporters can do their own art walks at any time convenient to them.  This is a major annual fundraiser for the Coalition on Homelessness and is deeply connected with our use of art to communicate complex social problems\, whether that be through printing posters with unique art or the production of our twice-monthly street newspaper Street Sheet.  The newspaper serves as a creative outlet for unhoused community members through artwork\, poetry\, creative writing\, and journalism.  The newspaper is sold by impoverished vendors who keep 100% of the proceeds and ensures San Franciscans can hear directly from those who are so personally standing at the intersection of the housing crisis\, racism\, and the deep structural inequities that drive homelessness.   \nView the Art Auction 20 Art Walk Venue Map here \nAll artwork will be available for preview online \n  \n“Red Poppy’s Window Exhibition” October thru December \nThe “Window Exhibition at RPAH” will preview works by Jennifer Bloomer\, Megan Wilson & Ronni Goodman. This exhibition is a part of the Art Auction by COH.\n \n  \n“The Stains and Misdirections of Manifest Destiny” \nMegan Wilson \nGrowing up as a fifth-generation Montanan\, Megan Wilson was surrounded by the mythology and iconography of the American West\, and specifically that of the cowboy. Images of rugged men with their code of stoic endurance\, self-reliance\, loyalty\, courage\, and camaraderie\, on horseback riding across the plains\, wrangling cattle and spitting chew were everywhere – from the paintings of Charles M. Russell\, Frederick Remington\, and Will James to the landscape itself. However\, the reality is the painful and violent history of manifest destiny that annihilated much of the indigenous peoples and wildlife of the West. The 19th-century doctrine gave American settlers the rationale of a ‘God-given destiny’ to expand westward across North America and beyond. Framed in the context of morality\, divinity\, freedom\, and the presumed greatness of a white America\, the ideology was used to justify the forced removal of Native Americans from their land\, the subsequent genocide of their people\, and later\, claims to Pacific islands. The mass migration also served industrialists who benefited from the labor force that established in the west to build the railroads\, work the land\, build the cities\, and mine the natural resources.  \nWilson’s latest body of work\, The Stains and Misdirections of Manifest Destiny explores and calls attention to the painful history of manifest destiny and its lasting racist\, imperialist influence on American social and political ideology today.  \nThe Stains series uses the traditional craft of quilling (paper filigree) to create intricate drawings that evoke 19th-century quilt patterns set against a stained foundation. The handicrafts of quilling and quilting spread from England to the American colonies and then to the American West. Wilson began quilling as a child when her grandmother passed on the fashionable craft of her childhood to her granddaughter.  \nThe Misdirections series counters the glorification of the west using revisions of existing historical texts branded into leather hides and stretched over wood placards to create new narratives and new directions for moving forward from a past rooted in the arrogance of manifest destiny.  \nKemp-Greene-Wilson-Metzner is a series of suede works with narratives and ornamentation from Wilson’s ancestral history of pioneer families who migrated from Wisconsin\, Illinois\, and Iowa to Utah\, Idaho\, and Montana in the 19th century as a protestant\, Mormon\, and Jewish settlers\, homesteaders\, miners\, and railway workers. \nMegan Wilson’s quilling drawings at Red Poppy Art House are part of the Stains series. \n\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n\n		\n	\n		[Show thumbnails]\n	\n\n\nRonnie Goodman was a self-taught homeless artist and former distance runner living in San Francisco.

For the past two decades\, she has painted and taught art in Guatemala\, India\, Italy\, Colorado\, Eritrea\, Thailand\, Kenya\, and California. Jen has a BA in Latin American Studies\, a Post Baccalaureate Certificate in Painting\, and a Masters Degree in Expressive Arts Therapy. She has created art with people aged 1 to 81 giving space for them to find their unique creative voice in the world through the arts. Jen’s own activist art can be seen in local murals\, at marches for social justice across the country\, and across social media. Her work has been shown internationally by Amplifier Art and is included in the Library of Congress archive. Jen believes that the intersection of creativity\, connection\, and community holds the answer to our personal and collective healing. \n\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n\n		\n\n		\n	\n		[Show thumbnails]\n	\n\n\n  \n11:00 am – 12:30 pm\, SATURDAY  OCTOBER  3rd\n\nPosters for Change / Workshop by Jennifer Bloomer \nCreate our own posters with simple materials with messages of change we wish to see in our communities and out in the world \nARTIST STATEMENT: \nI believe in the power of creativity to create tangible\, powerful\, change in the world. Art has the ability to go beyond words and move hearts and change minds. My art and workshops aim to energize individuals and communities to reflect\, listen deeply to one another and come together as a community to rally for justice\, respect\, and love. \nWORKSHOP: \nIn this art workshop\, we’ll be making posters with messages of change we wish to see in our communities and out in the world. I will share my own brainstorming process and walk you through how to come up with your own images and words to invigorate others about issues you care about. We’ll create our own posters with simple materials you might have around your house. No experience art-making- all are welcome! \nMaterials:  \n\nPiece of Cardboard (15″ x 20″ or bigger) \nAcrylic paint\nPaintbrushes\nSharpies or Markers\n\n  \nPERFORMANCES (ONLINE) OCT. 3RD\n  \nNatalie Cressman and Ian Faquini\nA uniquely intimate duo featuring original material in three languages\, drawing from the music of Brazil\, Impressionism\, and the Great American Songbook.\nFeaturing: \nNatalie Cressman – Trombone \nIan Faquini – guitar \nTrombonist and singer/songwriter Natalie Cressman and Brazilian composer\, guitarist\, and singer Ian Faquini have created a uniquely intimate collaboration\, drawing from impressionism\, jazz\, and the great Brazilian songwriting tradition. The duo’s global take on music is largely expressed through the distinct compositional voice of Faquini\, with occasional lyrics penned by Cressman. Their original material features songs in three different languages and encompasses a vast spectrum of musical ground. With the warm instrumentation of acoustic guitar and trombone and two-part vocal harmonies hugging the Brazilian-accented Portuguese\, Cressman & Faquini weave their musical voices together to create a fully orchestrated sound befitting a much larger ensemble. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS: \nNatalie Cressman has spent the past ten years touring the jam band circuit as a horn player and vocalist with Phish’s Trey Anastasio\, while also collaborating with many illustrious figures on the New York City jazz scene. When she’s not performing her own music\, Cressman can be found collaborating with some of the most illustrious figures in rock\, funk\, jazz and beyond\, which have included Phish\, Big Gigantic\, Carlos Santana\, Escort\, Wycliffe Gordon\, Nicholas Payton\, Anat Cohen\, The Motet\, and Umphrey’s McGee. \nBorn in Brasília and raised in Berkeley\, Ian Faquini was a member of the renowned Berkeley High School Jazz program before going on to study at the California Jazz Conservatory in Berkeley and\, immediately after graduating\, joined the faculty there. He has performed throughout Europe\, Japan\, Brazil and the United States and has shared the stage and recording studio with such names as Guinga\, Brad Mehldau\, Chris Potter\, Spok\, Lee Konitz\, Fleurine\, among many others. \n \nAya Safiya and Tano Brock\nTraditional music from Greece and the Eastern Mediterranean\nFeaturing: \nAya Safiya – vocals\, violin\, laouto  \nTano Brock – vocals\, clarinet\, laouto \nABOUT THE PROJECT: \nAya Safiya and Tano Brock have been musical collaborators for over a decade. They met at a music camp in their teenage years\, and began playing Greek and Balkan music together. In 2014\, along with Cecilia Peña-Govea and Miguel León\, they formed Taraf de Locos\, a SF Bay Area group that created a unique blend of Balkan and Afro-Latin music styles. Following an album release and tour with Taraf de Locos\, Aya and Tano traveled to Eastern Europe together to discover and study music. They have since been collaborating on a regular basis; continuing to play Greek and Balkan traditional styles\, as well as contemporary original music. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic\, Aya and Tano have been frequently performing live-stream concerts from their home studio\, both independently and as a part of larger concerts/festivals.  \nABOUT THE ARTISTS: \nWith strong messages and emotional vulnerability\, Bay Area raised artist Aya Safiya reveals her diverse and complex identity in her singing and songwriting. Her first EP “Aya Safiya\,” released in 2018\, was a transitional introduction to her electronic singer-songwriter career initiated after decades of working as a Greek/Mediterranean/Balkan-music singer and violinist. Aya was 15 when she first started performing and has since gone on to perform at Greek festivals in the US and in Greece\, as well as at venues such as The Great American Music Hall in SF\, the Grand Prospect Hall in NYC\, and the House of Blues in Boston. She has also taught classes in regional Greek violin and Greek/Balkan singing at community-based music schools such as The Freight and Salvage Coffeehouse in Berkeley\, the Sierra Music and Arts Institute in Central California\, and Apapachoa in Nicaragua. In July 2020 she released her 2nd EP\, “My Other Half.” While the new EP is a continuation of her singer-songwriter project\, through it she explores new grounds\, incorporating her Japanese-American roots and writing all lyrics in Japanese. Although Aya’s music “lives between the lines of genre and culture\,” (Jocelle Koh\, Asian Pop Weekly) and “defies standard categorization\,” (Mitch Mosk\, Atwood Magazine) her intimate\, nostalgia evoking songwriting\, ethereal singing\, and hazy production with help from producer Tano Brock\, distinctly conquers a vibe. \nTano Brock is a 24-year-old musician\, songwriter\, producer\, and engineer. Born and raised in San Francisco\, CA\, Tano began studying and performing music at a young age and had an almost supernatural knack for it ever since he began banging on a drum at only a few months old. Throughout his childhood\, Tano accompanied his family to various music camps in California where he was exposed to music from all over the world. At 6 years old\, he began studying darbuka\, a Middle Eastern drum. He then started studying piano at age 7\, and at 12 began teaching himself guitar. In his early teens\, he started playing saxophone/clarinet\, as well as exploring the world of digital recording and production. At age 18\, he released his self-produced debut solo album “Bandit” (2014) – which garnered significant success and launched his career as a composer for synch licensing. In 2019\, Tano graduated from Berklee College of Music with a degree focused on performance and music production & engineering. During his time at Berklee\, he explored his deep affinity with world music traditions\, traveling to Turkey to study with master musicians\, and to Cuba for recording sessions in Havana. He is currently producing and mixing for various artists of different styles such as: reggaetón artist La Doña\, Indie/J-Pop artist Aya Safiya\, pop artist Liv Young\, multi-percussionist/vocalist Miguelito Leon\, and Ecuadorian vocalist Gerson Eguiguren. \n  \nStrings of the Near East with Gari & Elana \nCompositions inspired by the traditional music of Greece and Turkey\nFeaturing: \nElana Brutman —Lyra with Sympathetic Strings \nGari Hagedus — Oud\, Saz & more…  \nABOUT THE PROJECT: \nGari and Elana will play original compositions inspired by the traditional music of Greece and Turkey and influenced by their own cultural understanding of music. Their repertoire is rooted in sentiment\, contemplation and a deep respect and love for distant parts of the world.   \nABOUT THE ARTISTS: \nGari Hegedus plays violin\, viola\, and a variety of lutes from Greece and Turkey\, including laouto\, oud\, and saz. Along with playing in Teslim\, he also performs with global music group Stellamara\, as well as Bay Area groups Janam and The Helladelics. Hegedus has studied with oud master Naseer Shamma and has studied\, recorded\, and performed with Ross Daly and Kelly Thoma. He has toured with the Mevlevi Dervish Order of America and continues to participate in Turkish ceremonial and devotional gatherings around the country. In addition to being a composer and performer\, Hegedus is a talented luthier\, repairing stringed instruments of every variety; coaxing sound from sazes\, violins\, and rebabs; restoring lutes and lyras; making bows; and finding ingenious ways to allow the true voice of an instrument to come forth. \nElana Brutman has dedicated the recent years of her life to the intensive study of the lyra with sympathetic strings\, an instrument whose design is based on the traditional Cretan lyra and incorporates elements of the Byzantine lyra and Indian sarangi. She has spent countless hours in deep study with her teacher\, Kelly Thoma\, in Crete\, and has spent many summers in Greece studying with master musicians from Greece\, Turkey and Iran. \n  \n \n  \nPower Rumba | Dos BandOLEros\nStruggle Makes Our Music Stronger \nFeaturing: \nAlberto Gutierrez – Guitar\, Vocals \nRaúl Vargas – Cajón\, percussion\, Vocals \nABOUT THE PROJECT: \nDos BandOLEros is a Spanish Rumba Duo founded by Raul Vargas (Makrú) and Muchacho Mandanga in the Bay Area.

SUMMARY:CANCELED: Jessica Fichot: French Chanson & Shanghai Jazz
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 CORONAVIRUS UPDATE\nOut of an abundance of caution and to align with current public health\nrecommendations regarding COVID-19\, we’ve made the difficult decision to\ncancel all programs and performances at Red Poppy Art House through\nApril 15. We will be in touch with anyone who has purchased tickets and we will\nrefund you. \nThis is a very difficult time for many so let us all make sure to share\nkindness and a smile and take good care of each other. \nThis link is insightful and shares much needed information about the virus.\nFeel free to share with others as the author has given permission to do so.\nCoronavirus: Why You Must Act Now \nWarmest regards\,\nRed Poppy Art House \nAccompanied by her accordion\, toy piano\, and fiery band\, Los Angeles-based chanteuse and songwriter Jessica Fichot draws from her multi-ethnic French/Chinese/American heritage to create an intoxicating multilingual blend of original French chanson\, 1940s Shanghai jazz\, gypsy swing and international folk.

SUMMARY:John-Carlos Perea Trio\, Live at the Red Poppy Art House
DESCRIPTION:  \nOn Friday\, August 9th the John-Carlos Perea Trio will perform works in progress from Perea’s forthcoming winter 2013 CD release “Creation Story” at the Red Poppy Art House in San Francisco\, CA. Musically\, the ensemble explores the intersections between American Indian\, jazz\, and improvised musics. This performance marks the first time that these musicians will perform collectively in a trio format. The group features John-Carlos Perea (electric bass\, Native American flute\, voice)\, Jimmy Biala (drums\, percussion\, voice)\, and Karl Evangelista (electric guitar). \n  \nTICKET INFORMATION: \n  \nThis performance is free to the public. However\, in order to respect space considerations at the venue\, attendees are strongly encouraged to RSVP and obtain free tickets through brownpapertickets.com. \n  \nBIOGRAPHIES: \n  \nGRAMMY award winner John-Carlos Perea (Mescalero Apache\, Irish\, German\, Chicano) maintains an active career as a performer and recording artist in San Francisco’s Jazz and World music scenes. First Dance (Aerep Music\, 2001)\, his debut recording as a leader\, featured Perea’s original musical compositions and performances on electric bass\, Native American flute\, and pow-wow singing. Thom Jurek noted that First Dance “feels like the late Jim Pepper’s Comin’ and Goin'” (allmusic.com). In addition to his musical activities\, Perea holds a PhD in Music from UC Berkeley (2009) and serves as an assistant professor in the Department of American Indian Studies\, College of Ethnic Studies\, at San Francisco State University. More about him at johncarlosperea.com. \n  \nPercussionist Jimmy Biala is a long time collaborator with John-Carlos Perea. They have performed and recorded together in many diverse settings\, including the Asian American Jazz Festivals in San Francisco and Chicago\, concerts at the historical Paramount Theater in Oakland\, and the Villa Montalvo Center for the Arts in Saratoga\, California. As a professional educator\, Jimmy leads workshops on American Jazz\, Cuban and Brazilian percussion across North America\, Europe\, and Asia. \n  \nGuitarist Karl Evangelista ranks among a new wave of creative musicians grounded in jazz\, 20th century experimentalism\, popular song\, and the exploration of the place of multiculturalism and ethnic co-existence in an increasingly post-cultural\, trans-idiomatic cultural space. As the creative force behind boundary breaking group Grex\, Evangelista has been called “essential current-and-future listening\, his music “a near-seamless blend of modern jazz\, contemporary structuralist composition\, indie rock\, and blues rock” (Tiny Mix Tapes). Via Asian Improv aRts\, Evangelista was awarded a 2011 Zellerbach Grant for the composition of Taglish\, a suite centered on Filipino-American culture; an album of the composition was successfully funded via Kickstarter and released in late 2012. Evangelista holds a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies from UC Berkeley (2006) and an MFA in Improvised Music from Mills College (2009). \n  \nShow is free.  RSVP and tickets available at brownpapertickets.com  Doors at 7:00 pm\, show at 7:30 pm. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Scott Amendola Quartet
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis quartet is a more traditional “jazz” type setting for Amendola’s music but lacks a chordal instrument. This frees up Ben\, Josh\, and John to move around in ways that only 3 super deep harmonic and swinging improvisors know how. And what’s guaranteed is a non-traditional evening of improvised music. The quartet will be interpreting Scott’s music from his recent record “Lift”\, as well as music from past releases\, as well as some new things\, and probably some music written by others. \n  \nBen Goldberg and Scott Amendola have a long history of playing music together starting in the 90’s. Ben is one of the most creative musicians on the planet. He knows how to own the music. Josh Smith is one of the few horn players who knows how to make texture\, space\, and energy elevate a band\, but also has is own unique way of playing melody. John Shifflett is the anchor that propels the music in creative ways. How does an anchor move things forward you ask? We’ll listen to Shifflett on Amendola’s last two releases (Lift and Believe) as a leader and you will understand. Or better yet come and hear it in person. Nothing is sacred with this band\, except the idea to keep the music deep and real. \n  \nBen Goldberg-clarinet\nJosh Smith-tenor saxophone\nJohn Shifflett-bass\nScott Amendola-drums \n  \n“If Scott Amendola didn’t exist\, the San Francisco music scene would have to invent him.” – Derk Richardson\, San Francisco Bay Guardian \n  \nScott Amendola.com\nScott Amendola on Facebook \n  \nAdmission: $12-20. Doors at 7:30 pm. Show at 8:00 pm. \n  \nTickets will not be sold in advance for this event. Please arrive at the Red Poppy when doors open to purchase tickets.

The group specializes in novel and unexpected arrangements of both traditional and popular music from around the world. \n  \nRedwood Tango Ensemble: \n  \nCharles Gorczynski – bandonéon\nHolly Mead – piano\nKendra Vernon – violin\nCelia Harris – violin\nDaniel Fabricant – double bass \n  \nTrio Zincalo: \n  \nCelia Harris – violin\nColin Hogan – accordion\nJon Monahan – guitar \n  \nRedwoodTango.com\nRedwood Tango on Facebook\nTrio-Zincalo on Facebook \n  \nAdmission is $10-20.
