Live at Sights and Sounds from Bayview

What a wonderful evening we had with great music by Pat Wilder & Serious Business and yummy food! The sun was out and people were dancing and laughing.

At 7pm they started telling their stories and it was a really interesting night learning about great and inspiriting people.
Below are some photos from the projects that I was part of.

Tomorrow, Thursday this month’s BayView Third on 3rd.

Come over and enjoy a fun evening at the Bayview Opera House on Sept, 19th.
The event 3rd on Third is also happening and you will find local food, art and music!
3rd Street between McKinnon and Quesada avenues 5.30 – 9PM.

San Francisco Arts Commission and KALW are show casing Story Telling Performances  where they are highlighting some of the many extra ordinary people from Bayview.
A small exhibition and the stories are shown in the Opera House from 7-8.30PM.

Of 7 stories I had the pleasure to document three; Bayview Senior Center – Linedance, Juana Tello – POWER, and Food Guardian Kenneth Hill.

Come on over it will be a blast!

Line Dance at Bayview Senior Center

To meet these lovely ladies once a week for a month, to experience their love and joy to move to music has been tremendously fun!
I also followed Marion and Sheila together with Laila Day; during one of their days outside dance class to hear their opinions about staying healthy, active, and social while aging.

Enjoyed learning to know you:

This project is part of a multimedia portrait series called Sights and Sounds of Bayview, a partnership between San Francisco Arts Commission and KALW. The result can be viewed on SFAC’s website in the fall and at the LIVE Radio Show at Bayview Opera House  on September 19th.

Wonderful news!
I have been selected to participate as a photographer in ‘Sights and Sounds of Bayview’, a series of multi media audio portraits of people in Bayview, a program sponsored by San Francisco Arts Commission produced by KALW 91.7FM.
I am so grateful and happy for this opportunity!

We are having a meeting today to plan for future photo shoots!

Also San Francisco Arts Commission states it will provide expanded access for Bayview/ Hunters Point residents to create and participate in vibrant cultural activities throughout the community.
A number of murals will begin appearing along 3rd Street, a ‘3rd on Third’ like a StreetSmaARTS; an arts walk modeled on Oakland’s Art Murmur featuring pop-up galleries and performances in restaurants and retail spaces will happen June 20th.

I’ll try to post some photos of appearing murals on 3rd Street and you should definitely take a Sunday stroll and check them out.
