Enjoy Free Admission to our exhibitions, Where Is Here, A Matter of Fact: Toyin Ojih Odutola Urban Africa: David Adjaye’s Photographic Survey, and Helina Metaferia: Home | Free, as MoAD joins the Contemporary Jewish Museum, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, and the California Historical Society for Art, Drink, & Be Merry! Third Thursdays in Yerba Buena.

Join us in the MoAD Salon at 6:30pm for an Opening Reception & Live Performance by Home | Free artist Helina Metaferia, featuring musical guest Zena Carlota. Home | Free addresses a diasporic longing for a physical and psychic home in a time of increased voluntary and involuntary mass migration of black bodies. Metaferia will perform with Carlota for a collaboration of live art that infuses sound, movement, and installation.

The performance will highlight notions of the body, migration, and identity while considering MoAD’s architectural space. Through experimental actions, Metaferia will activate the art objects in her exhibition while engaging with its critical context.

Be sure to pick up a sticker at MoAD for special Third Thursday all-night happy hours at participating bars and restaurants. The third Thursday of each month in downtown San Francisco’s Yerba Buena neighborhood will be a monthly outing full of arts, food, and drink! Wander the blocks around Yerba Buena Gardens to soak in art and music.
