SUMMARY:SAN FRANCISCO–What Does it Mean to Create Home?
DESCRIPTION:SAN FRANCISCO—Listen to part one of the We Are Home: Tenderloin Community Quilt Project panel series\, which will dive into an expansive discussion of the socio-emotional impact of place making\, community building and home making. The panel will highlight perspectives of people with lived experience being unhoused or homeless and those who are community/home builders\, and ask how these perspectives mobilize us towards making meaningful change.  \nWednesday\, October 25\, 6-7:30 pm: What Does it Mean to Create Home? – panel discussion hosted by Mattie Loyce at San Francisco Public Library\, Civic Center Branch (free and open to the public) \nView panel information on the San Francisco Public Library’s website. \n—- \nThis program is part of a public programming series in support of We Are Home: Tenderloin Community Quilt Project exhibit at Root Division in San Francisco. \nExhibit dates: November 9-29\, 2023\nGallery Hours: Wednesday–Saturday from 2-6 PM \nWe Are Home: Visions and Voices of the Tenderloin Community Quilt is an exhibition presenting the work of the Tenderloin Community Quilt project. Beginning in the Fall of 2022 the project engaged the extended Tenderloin through collective quilt-making workshops to express the significance and meaning of ‘home’. The exhibition is the culmination of one year of work\, featuring a film of interviews with resident artists\, archival print content from the SFPL Tenderloin Archive\, and the large-scale collaborative quilts created through its workshops. \nIn the face of the pandemic\, overdose epidemic\, and housing crisis that disproportionately affect the Tenderloin neighborhood\, the Tenderloin Community Quilt focuses on amplifying the voices of people who have the lived experience of homelessness\, and those that care for\, or live and work in community with unhoused neighbors. Extending the collaboration and contributions of the project throughout the Tenderloin community\, Mattie Loyce hosted workshops at the nine DISH sites and throughout the Tenderloin with Hospitality House\, The Healing Well\, The Tenderloin Museum\, Skywatchers\, Faithful Fools\, and CounterPulse. With support from Mary Hogue of Mission Praxis\, the quilt squares will be joined into a series of large-scale community quilts and exhibited for the first time at Root Division this November. \nALONGSIDE THIS EXHIBITION WILL BE THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMMING:\nWednesday\, November 8\, 2023\, 6-8 pm: Radical Histories of Housing and Community Care – panel discussion hosted by Mattie Loyce at San Francisco Public Library\, Civic Center Branch (free and open to the public)\nThursday\, November 9\, 2023 3-5pm: Public community reception for resident artists\, Root Division (free and open to the public). \nSaturday\, November 11\, 4-6 pm: 2nd Saturday reception\, Root Division (free and open to the public) \nThe 2nd Saturday reception will feature a performance by Tenderloin resident based performance group Skywatchers\, and will overlap with visiting Root Division’s artist spaces as part of ArtSpan Open Studios. \nLearn more on Root Division’s website.\nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Project Grant.

SUMMARY:SAN FRANCISCO–Film panel discussion: SALLY
DESCRIPTION:SAN FRANCISCO– View sneak preview of excerpts of SALLY\, a documentary-in-progress about the life and work of Sally Gearhart\, lesbian feminist activist\, scholar and fantasy author.

Requesting at least 3 business days in advance will help ensure availability. \nFilm description: \nSally Gearhart was a charismatic radical lesbian activist\, author\, and academic who spearheaded the 1970s and 80s lesbian feminist movement yet has been largely forgotten. But the film SALLY is not just a straightforward biography of this “hidden figure” deserving more recognition. It also shows the symbiotic relationship between spokeswomen like Sally and movements for social change\, which are necessarily collective. And it highlights Sally’s captivating iconoclasm and contradictions: SALLY is both a wild lesbian safari and a timely and deeply moving meditation on the tensions inherent in revolutionary movements: ideological principles versus human realities\, separatism versus mainstreaming\, and throwing down the gauntlet versus reaching across the aisle. Ultimately\, Sally and compatriots’ key contributions can help guide our current\, urgent battles for social justice. \nAbout the panelists: \nDeborah Craig is an award-winning documentary director and producer whose films use compelling personal stories to raise awareness about the challenges and strengths of underrepresented communities. Her work has played at LGBTQ+\, women’s and documentary film festivals in the U.S. and internationally.
