Rooted Recipes Project x Radical Joy
February 23, 2019
The Growlery, SF The Rooted Recipes Project is back with our first event of the year. We're celebrating Lunar New Year (Year of the Pig) with a LIT line-up of performances, DJs, and super delicious food. We'll be incorporating and remixing our favorites from Vietnamese, Lao, Filipino, and Chinese food traditions. Our theme this year is Radical Joy: reflecting on how prioritizing our joy and happiness can be a radical act amidst oppressive systems that aim to undo us and our livelihoods. Through food, comedy, theater, music, dancing, (and more!), we're creating a dynamic space to celebrate old and evolving traditions, set intentional wishes, and be in community with each other, to exist in joy and love. Stay tuned for our OFF THE CHAIN menu and line-up of performances! Venue information: The venue/house is not wheelchair accessible. There is limited parking near the venue/house. We encourage folks to take public transportation or carpool. Thuy Tran, co-founder of The Rooted Recipes Project, is an Ebony McKinney Arts Leadership Awardee, supported by Emerging Arts Professionals SF/BA's MADE Incubator Program and the San Francisco Arts Commission. Their generous support has made this event possible. To learn more about EAP and their work, please visit: www.emergingsf.org. |
