Then and since\, the toxic culture and politics in “Amreeka\,” as some Middle Easterners playfully pronounce it\, offer ample fodder for complaints. This cathartic and witty venting holds a mirror up to reality showing it has become so absurd and surreal\, one must laugh\, if not cry.\nFor Iraqi artist Wafaa Bilal\, the show\, just like his solo works\, “is an artistic platform for creating dialogue and bringing people together on highly charged topics. Not politicizing laughter but laughing at politics as a form of solidarity and resistance.”\nTo learn more about Golden Thread Productions\, click here https://goldenthread.org/ \nTICKETS\n$20-$100\nGeneral admission tickets available at a sliding scale.

Crossing the veil shifts the delicate equilibrium of light\, life\, and color\, which are pushed and pulled into each landscape. When the veil returns\, it releases these elements to be reclaimed by its previous existence. Stokes addresses this tenuous relationship and the resulting effects of the tension. \nIn addition to his solo exhibition\, Luna Rienne Gallery will be launching the crowdfunding campaign for their new parklet\, designed by Stokes. \nChris Stokes uses mixed media to interlace and layer unassuming combinations of color\, lines and found materials. Elements from literature\, cultural symbols\, and architecture meld together to become art that equals more than the sum of its parts. Born in Philadelphia\, the long-time San Francisco resident’s work is a reflection of his travels\, his ever-evolving perspective of the world\, and an interest in science fiction. The resulting pieces represent new landscapes and structures that seem barely possible. \nThe Thin Places will be on exhibit from May 13 through June 11\, 2023 at Luna Rienne Gallery\, 3318 22nd Street near Valencia in San Francisco\, which features visual artists working in contemporary mediums who integrate elements of urban culture with traditional techniques. The opening reception will be held on Saturday\, May 13\, from 6PM until 9PM.

World-renowned Spanish guitarist\, Juani De La Isla\, will lead the musical journey. De La Isla is a highly respected flamenco guitarist from the island of San Fernando near the port city of Cádiz\, in Andalusia in southwestern Spain. Renowned Spanish musician Diego Amador\, Hijo will be bringing his vocal and piano stylings to the ensemble. Amador hails from a long line of Gypsy flamenco artists who have expanded their reach into rock\, jazz\, and other forms of world music\, launching the world-famous flamenco band Pata Negra.\nAdrian Santana\, a flamenco dancer from Malaga\, will join Zertuche on stage. This will be Santana’s debut with the company and his first time performing in San Francisco. Santana comes from a family of flamenco artists\, including his uncle\, Pepito Vargas\, a well-known dancer who passed down his knowledge to his nephew. Making his debut with the company is California-based electronic musician\, Pascual Martinez. Come travel the world through Transitar por un Mundo sin Tiempo!\nThis show is inspired by a trip Zertuche took to Jordan in 2021\, during a time of many Covid restrictions. She says “visiting the Wadi Rum Desert\, especially\, was one of the most incredible experiences of my life: peaceful energy surrounded me like an inexplicable force.I felt the sensation —with the light\, the endless red sand\, the stars clear in the night sky — that time had ceased to exist\, that everything was perfect\, that anything could happen. Flamenco\, to me\, also has that inexplicable energy\, and I’d like the audience to feel those same emotions\, even if just for the hour and 15 minutes of the show.” URL:https://missionlocal.org/event/herbst-theatre-theatre-flamenco-of-sf-presents-transitar-por-un-mundo-sin-tiempo-passage-through-a-timeless-world/ LOCATION:Herbst Theatre\, 401 Van Ness Avenue\, San Francisco\, CA\, 94102\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://newspack-missionlocal.s3.amazonaws.com/mission/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Carola-Zertuche-Photo-by-AndyMoog-scaled-e1679142310718.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230513T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230513T220000 DTSTAMP:20260423T154129 CREATED:20230504T132703Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230504T132904Z UID:10017729-1684008000-1684015200@missionlocal.org SUMMARY:ATA: Other Cinema: OPTRONICA3 DESCRIPTION:BECKER + 99 HOOKER + RE-MIXERS \nOur third iteration of the season’s Optronicas is more about video/performance and re-mixing\, with a couple of the country’s heaviest hitters.

He moved on to help open several restaurants\, attend the California Culinary Academy\, and study under European chefs with Michelin backgrounds. Later\, Mike served as an executive chef for catering companies\, wineries and country clubs. When his son was born\, Mike transitioned his career into teaching\, returning to the CCA where he eventually became the Executive Chef and Director of Academics.

DESCRIPTION:Could the solution to San Francisco’s homelessness crisis be 64 square foot cabins dotting empty lots and spaces around the city? \nOakland and San Jose are just some of the Bay Area communities that have built tiny home villages to provide short term housing for their neediest residents.

In other words\, can the city make its Black community whole and what will that mean for the rest of San Francisco? \nSFAARAC has focused its work on education\, housing\, policy and economic empowerment. After more than a year of research\, study and public comment\, the Committee released a draft Reparations Plan and the world took notice. \nThe Plan includes more than 50 recommendations including direct compensation\, educational support\, and reimagining some of downtown’s empty commercial spaces. \nWe have invited SFAARAC Chair Eric McDonnell and Vice-Chair Tinisch Hollins to our living room to talk about their hometown\, reparations\, history and the way forward for San Francisco and its Black residents.

Masks are welcome. \nBiryani is a classic South Asian dish that combines fragrant rice with savory meat\, vegetables\, and spices. It is a crowd-pleaser that is perfect for special occasions and family dinners alike. \nBiryani preparation is deceptively technical – making fluffy rice that emerges as individual grains\, dry between moist layers of meat\, is an art form. Meghna will make you feel confident with the techniques needed to achieve the complex biryani flavor: roasting whole spices\, caramelizing onions\, and pre-cooking rice to an intimidating 70% doneness. \nIn this master class\, you’ll learn two delicious biryani recipes – chicken biryani and vegetable biryani – along with two classic side sauces to infuse your meal with a final bit of flavor – cucumber raita and cilantro mint chutney. And to drink\, you’ll make a refreshing mango lassi! \nMENU \nChicken Biryani—Layered rice with fried onions\, marinated chicken with cashews and yogurt\, saffron rice \nVegetable Biryani—Layered rice with fried onions\, beans\, cauliflower\, carrots\, peas\, and nuts \nCucumber Raita—A cooling yogurt and cucumber dip \nCilantro Mint Chutney—A fiery and bright cilantro and mint sauce \nMango Lassi—A refreshing sweet yogurt and mango drink \nThis menu contains the following common allergens: Tree Nuts\, Dairy.

When asked about her culinary background\, Meghna notes with a smile that she comes from a culture that has been focused on food for the past five thousand years! With a heritage of food as the epicenter of most occasions\, she is driven to find and replicate the countless traditional tastes of India – from Mumbai’s modern restaurants to the street food of tiny villages. \nMeghna regularly visits India\, where she works with Indian restaurateurs and chefs to keep abreast of their evolving cuisine. Upon return to her San Francisco kitchen\, she infuses the latest trends with ancient traditions and techniques to pass along to her students.

This workshop is an introduction to bees and beekeeping practices whether you’re starting a backyard hive or are just curious about bees. We’ll cover some basics on bees\, their progress through spring and summer\, and what to expect as colonies expand in the warmer\, longer days. There will be a class outline\, suggested reading\, and additional recommendations provided. If weather permits\, students will see the hives close-up. Protective clothing will be provided. \nThe class is designed for absolute beginners so no prerequisite knowledge is required. We will have more beginning beekeeping classes this year\, and each will emphasize what is happening in a beehive throughout the seasons. Keep checking our workshop schedule for more beekeeping workshops! \nInstructors: \nMarc Johnson and Pilar Leano completed GFE’s Get Up! (Gardening and Composting Educator Program) in 2010 and have volunteered at the garden ever since. They first put hives at GFE in early 2015 and manage about a dozen hives\, mostly in Western San Francisco. Marc is on the board of the SF Beekeepers Association and volunteers his time and energy to promote urban beekeeping. \nPaul Koski’s interest in honeybees\, and insects in general\, began as a graduate student when he studied entomology at San Francisco State University and UC Berkeley. He taught high school biology and science classes in San Francisco for many years. After retiring in 2008 he was able to spend more time with honeybees and beekeeping. Paul has tended honeybee hives in San Francisco for more than 20 years and has taught many beekeeping classes for the Garden for the Environment\, San Francisco Beekeepers Association\, community gardens\, and other groups. \nMark Carlson served in El Salvador in the Peace Corps from 2005 to 2007. During that time\, he kept bees as part of his community agriculture extension work. In 2019\, he graduated with the inaugural class of the California Master Beekeeper Program. He is the co-chair and “honey guru” for the Good Food Awards and has been a mead maker for many years. He works and keeps bees in the Bayview. \nCOVID-19 information: \n GFE Mask Guidelines: Masks are optional for vaccinated visitors (workshop participants\, volunteers\, students etc.) and required for unvaccinated individuals. Our staff is fully vaccinated and boosted. Thank you for continuing to keep the garden a safe and open space for everyone!\n Please cancel your shift and do not come to GFE if you develop COVID19 symptoms on or before the day of your workshop (fever\, chills\, repeated shaking / shivering\, cough\, sore throat\, shortness of breath\, difficulty breathing\, feeling unusually weak or fatigued\, new loss of taste or smell\, muscle pain\, headache\, runny or congested nose\, or diarrhea)\n GFE will continue to monitor the COVID19 situation in San Francisco and make any necessary changes to the workshop based on current information. \nNo walk-up registration permitted for this course.
