Drawn, Quartered, Repurposed Start Date: Saturday 8/13/2022 — End Date: Saturday 8/13/2022 Admission:FREE Painting, Collage and Mixed Media by Tom White and Ginny Parsons Exhibit Dates: August 13th – October 28th Opening Reception: Saturday, August 13th, 3:00 – 5:00pm Saturday Gallery Hours, 1:00 – 3:00pm Ginny: 8/27, 9/24, 10/8 Tom: 9/10, 10/15 Drawn, Quartered, Repurposed presents the work of two long-time Bay Area artists, Tom White and Ginny Parsons. “Thinking with their hands”, White and Parsons create assemblages and collage utilizing old and discarded objects, previous artworks and elements of nature, exploring the intersection of turbulence and tranquility in their work. For over seven decades, Tom White has experimented with a wide range of methods, including performance, painting, and sculpture. In this show, White tears or cuts pieces of his previous works into quarters or other shapes, then reassembles them to create new abstractions. White’s technique of papier collé sec or dry collage, incorporates fixed pieces collaged to a support and others left to tumble into new configurations. Ginny Parsons has been painting for five decades on everything from found wood to old yard sale canvases using materials ranging from peanut butter to borax. This exhibit showcases her series, Bikes with Wings, created in response to grief and loss. Parsons sees the bicycle as a sign of hope for our troubled climate and often involves seaweed as a link to the natural world.

San Francisco Jewish Film Festival Opening Night Start Date: Thursday 7/21/2022 — End Date: Thursday 7/21/2022 Admission:$30-$75 San Francisco Jewish Film Festival’s Opening Night presentation of Karaoke (2022) and party. Special Guests expected to attend the film screening.   Taking inspiration from his own family, director Moshe Rosenthal has created a special film that focuses on a major population in modern Israel—the Sephardic middle class—that is underrepresented in cinema. With its title playing on the duality of the kitschy and the operatic that coincide within the social act of amateur singing, KARAOKE is an optimistic portrait of midlife self-discovery, laced with both poignant wisdom and barbed humor. ? Following KARAOKE, the party continues nearby at The Randall Museum. Try your hand at the karaoke station, nosh on tasty treats, and sip on refreshments from our festival partners. This event takes place outdoors and indoors.

Family Connections Back-to-School Supply Drive Start Date: Thursday 7/28/2022 — End Date: Thursday 7/28/2022 Admission:Free Help children and families start the school year off right! For many parents/caregivers, purchasing their child’s school supplies can be challenging and stressful. We are working to ensure families across San Francisco can feel confident and secure this August. When kids are prepared for the school year with a backpack full of the necessary supplies, they gain a sense of independence and increase their self-esteem. By providing backpacks, classroom materials, and essential items, we can reduce the barriers that prevent children’s ability to learn and succeed. There are two ways you can support: 1. Make a donation to help us purchase supplies at fccenters.org/backtoschool 2. Join us on July 28 at our Portola center to help assemble backpacks and write notes to each of the students, wishing them a great start to the school year. Our goal is to raise $10,000 and your support will help us provide 150 children entering grades K-5 with the items they need to thrive!
