MAR.1: ROURKE's LIVE PERFORMANCE + COLBURN +

The first of three Focus-on-Locus shows in fact addresses our own situation here in the Bay Area, with a special section devoted to dear departed Scott Williams, long-time denizen of 20th St. in the Inner Mission. One of the greatest stencil artists of our times, Scott passed away in June, leaving behind a true Mission School legacy of obsessively worked paintings--in books, on buildings, in frames, and on the streets.

Our Fall Season opener promises an explosion of creative energy akin to the moment when two atomic halves come together to achieve critical mass!---We ram together a pair of 45-min. sets---one animated and one musical--- to properly inaugurate OC’s autumn programming. Featured is the world premiere of Salise Hughes’ marvelous rendition of Mickey Mouse’s inside story---following two tunes from Bernal Heights’ Scott Stark, the second being a duet with Jeremy Rourke!
