Cancelled – YBCA:ConVerge Monthly Art Gathering | SoMa

This month’s ConVerge presents a variety of workshops and interactive installations that guide you through a range of hands-on experiences with artists and arts organizations featured in the Bay Area Now 7 exhibition.

Grand Lobby & Screening Room: San Francisco’s internationally acclaimed science and technology dance company Capacitor hosts a special event exploring the question: “What does the act of creativity look like?” This interactive program takes place just before Capacitor’s world premiere at YBCA, Synaptic Motion, a multi-sensory experience informed by brain scans taken at UCSF to capture the mind during the act of choreography.

In the Youth Arts Lounge: A reading of inmates’ writings by former inmates, current program participants, their teacher Zoe Mullery, and perhaps a guest reader.

In the Galleries: Come hear readings of their work from Publication Studio writers Kevin Killian and more.
