Friday Nights at the de Young | Golden Gate Park

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Live music, performances and live art making all take place in the de Youngs free zone (that means you don’t have to pay!) on Friday, October 14th as part of the weekly “Friday Nights at the de Young” series.

• Live Music: From the Gulf of Mexico, Iranian-American musician Fared Shafinury brings his Persian indie rock sound to the Pacific Coast, seeking “not a departure from Iranian form nor the emulation of Western genres, but arrival at the point where binaries and boundaries bleed and blend.”
• Performance: Hiding & Seeing Performance Series: Package, featuring Raelle Myrick Hodges – A theatrical installation inspired by the works of American writer James Baldwin and German photographer August Sander, Package delves into the curiosities and questions of the cross-pollination of identity as seen in the 21st century, engaging its audience with humor in a discussion of race, gender, and orientation.
• Artist in Residence: Maori weaver Glenda Joyce Hape – Kimball Artist Studio 1pm to 8:30pm
