Live music by Manicato
Born in 2004, Manicato is the part of a San Francisco musicians’ collective known as the Pink Palace. The word manicato (a bold, valiant person with a good heart) comes from the indigenous Puerto Rico tribe known as the Tainos. Manicato’s socially conscious grooves combine salsa, cumbia, timba, rock, reggae, bomba, plena, hip-hop, funk, and everything in between. This is a fresh new sound in one of the oldest of languages—the universal language of music.
Kimball Education Gallery, 6:00–8:30 p.m.
Opening Reception: To Return Once Again: A Celebration of Day of the Dead/Otra Vez Atraves: A Celebration of Día de los Muertos is an installation organized by Mia Gonzalez, who will be in the gallery on this special evening along with artists Cathleen Apodoca, John Aragon, Juan Carlos, Lawrence Colacion, Tony de Carlo, Anita de Lucio, Tony Dominguez, Luis Garcia, Raquel Garcia, Ann Golden, Sean Griggs, Jose Ramon Lerma, Miriam Martinez, Niz, Ernesto H.
