BAN7 Performance Festival

Description

Bay Area Now 7's core concept is to experiment with new approaches to traditional curatorial structures that highlight collaboration within our region's cultural eco-system and which push beyond the boundaries of the performance stage towards a multidisciplinary celebration of some of the most exciting artistic voices in the Bay Area today. The 16 performing artists selected from among a pool of community partner nominees include: Antique Naked Soul, Sheldon Brown, Gregory Dawson, Katie Faulkner/little seismic dance company, Fog Beast, Christy Funsch, Lenora Lee Dance, Eddie Madril/Sewam American Indian Dance, Kompiang Metri Davies, Rico Pabón, RAWdance, Tania Santiago, sfSound, Latanya d. Tigner, Marvin K. White, and ZOFO.
