CA for the Arts announces the Guidelines for our Grassroots Artists Advocacy Program (GAAP). GAAP is a cohort-based fellowship program for artist advocates, 18 years or older, who live or work in Oakland or San Francisco. Artist Advocates include diverse artists, culture bearers, and creative workers with a dedicated and committed artistic or cultural practice who directly engage in advocacy and policy development to advance the holistic well-being of the field. Each artist advocate will identify a change they want to make happen and be supported to develop an advocacy plan to enact that change. GAAP awards a cohort of five artist advocates $12,000 each to participate in a nine-month curriculum that will launch in November 2024. The stipend is not a grant. The cohort members will dedicate 25 hours per month to attend in-person and Zoom meetings of the learning community and work on their advocacy plans.
? ?? . ?
The GAAP application will open on October 1 and close on October 14, 2024, at 5:00 pm PDT.

The Samapguitas & Friends return to the Freight & Salvage on October 26!
Celebrate Filipino-American History Month The Samapguitas?& Friends return to the Freight & Salvage on October?26!
More info:
The Sampaguitas & Friends: Journeys of A Third Culture is a celebration of Filipino-American history and the third culture experience of the present and future via music, dance and stories. With special guests Vangie Buell, Theresa Calpotura, Melissa Cruz, Genesis Fermin, Kaisahan AfroCubalintang, and more.
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, The Sampaguitas sing Filipino folk songs and inspired originals in three-part harmony. Drawing influences from folk, blues, doo-wop girl groups, and the Filipinx-American diaspora, Jenevieve Francisco, Cristina Ibarra, and Aireene Espiritu share music from their roots and explore what it means to be in a ¡°third culture¡± between worlds. The sampaguita is the national flower of the Philippines and only fitting to describe the sweet sounds coming from their melded vocal textures, tones, and tight harmonies.
