All quilts that Community Quilting Bee have made throughout our five years will be on display at FCCW, along with the two small Quilts for Palestine made this year — these two quilts are a part of the raffle fundraiser.
Reflection of Space, A Night of Performance
Friday, December 13, 9PM–midnight
At FCCW: 3053 Rosslyn St. LA, CA 90065
Info on our space here
Suggested donation sliding scale: $1-$25
Reflection of Space invites performers Avery Collins-Byrd, Jose, Eva Spieser, and Nube Cruz to share their work that encapsulates the way space changes the body. At times we do not notice the changes that our bodies morph through; like how our bodies change in weight by a small piece of lent tagging along with us from home. Or the way our body changes under the pressures of society, colonization, and capitalism.
FCCW NEWS
Yves B. Golden’s The Burden
We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our latest Artist In Residence exhibit this fall — a collection of sculptural works and a series of programs by Yves B. Golden, curated by Seta Morton. The Burden draws it’s title from a negro spiritual “Down by the Riverside,” an apt title for Golden, whose body of work both attends and surrenders to the fluidity of water and, with this exhibition, demands demilitarization. Within the traditions of Black feminist pedagogy as transformative praxis, The Burden aims to soften our senses while sharpening our teeth and tongues around the shape of disarmament.
Call For Photographers
This fall, we’re very much looking forward to inviting all of you to our new space, and in anticipation, we’re seeking talented photographers to document this new era of FCCW!
