SUMMARY:UN/RAVELING: A Collective Mourning to Show at Cuesta College’s Harold J. Miossi Art Gallery
DESCRIPTION:The Harold J. Miossi Art Gallery at Cuesta College presents UN/RAVELING: A Collective Mourning\, a group exhibition about mourning and grief from Jan. 30 through Feb. 27. \nThrough their distinct practices\, the diverse group of artists weaves a collective response to these narratives of loss. They ravel and unravel their own experiences with each other’s – culminating in an exhibition where anyone can find a place to enter\, sit\, and not feel alone. “Artists have long used their contemporary practices to wrestle with grief and mourning—both personal and collective\,” said Cuesta College Harold J. Miossi Art Gallery Coordinator Emma Saperstein. \nThe opening reception is on Jan. 30 from 4:30 – 7:30 p.m. with an artist talk with Angela Hennessy at 5:30 p.m. in Room 6304. A poetry performance by Janaka Stucky will be held on Feb. 6 from 5:30 – 7p.m. in the art gallery. Cancer: A Love Story\, by Christen Clifford\, will be performed on Feb. 13 from 5:30 – 7 p.m. in Room 5401. The performance is a funny memoir documentary about Clifford’s fight to survive and heal from cancer and rape. \nParticipating artists include Stephanie Allen\, Ashley Eva Brock\, Maryanne Casasanta\, Christen Clifford\, Susan Clinard\, Melissa Cody\, Jamee Crusan\, Charley Friedman\, Jeff Frost\, Angela\nHennessy\, David JP Hooker\, Amy Khoshbin\, Laura Krifka\, Cherith Lundin\, Joanne Ruggles\, and Janaka Stucky. \nThe Harold J. Miossi Art Gallery is in Room 7170 on Cuesta College’s San Luis Obispo campus.

SUMMARY:SLO REP Presents\, Always... Patsy Cline
DESCRIPTION:Show Times\nFebruary 7 – March 8\, 2020\nWed-Sun @ 7 pm\nSat & Sun @ 2 pm\nBased on a true story. \nAlways…Patsy Cline is a delightful musical about friendship\, country music and a brilliant artist who left us all too soon. More than a tribute to the legendary country singer who died tragically at age 30 in a plane crash in 1963\, Always…Patsy Cline is a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger\, who befriended the star in a Texas honky-tonk in 1961\, and continued a correspondence with Cline until her death. \nThe musical play\, complete with down home country humor\, poignant tales of life on the road and even some audience participation\, includes many of Patsy’s unforgettable hits such as Crazy\, I Fall to Pieces\, Sweet Dreams and Walking After Midnight — 27 songs in all!  The show’s title was inspired by Cline’s letters to Seger\, which were consistently signed “Love ALWAYS… Patsy Cline.” \nCreated and originally directed by Ted Swindley\nDirected by Kevin Harris\nMusical Direction by Wendy Feaver\nScenic Design by David Linfield

SUMMARY:Ani DiFranco at the Fremont
DESCRIPTION:Ani DiFranco will be live at the Fremont Theater in downtown SLO on Sunday\, February 16! \nTickets On-Sale Friday\, November 22 at 10 AM \n♦ SHOW INFORMATION ♦ \nDoor Time- 8:00 PM\nShow Time- 9:00 PM\nAll Ages \n♦ TICKET OUTLET ♦ \nBoo Boo Records\n978 Monterey St • SLO\nMon-Wed 10-8\, Thurs-Sat 10-9\, Sun 11-6 \n♦ BAND INFORMATION ♦ \nWidely considered a feminist icon\, Grammy winner Ani DiFranco is the mother of the DIY movement\, being one of the first artists to create her own record label in 1990. While she has been known as the “Little Folksinger\,” her music has embraced punk\, funk\, hip hop\, jazz\, soul\, electronica and even more distant sounds. Her collaborators have included everyone from Utah Phillips to legendary R&B saxophonist Maceo Parker to Prince. She has shared stages with Bob Dylan\, Bruce Springsteen\, Pete Seeger\, Kris Kristofferson\, Greg Brown\, Billy Bragg\, Michael Franti\, Chuck D.\, and many more. Her most recent album Binary was released in June 2017 on Righteous Babe Records and her memoir No Walls and the Recurring Dream was released in May 2019 by Viking Books. \nRejecting the major label system has given her significant creative freedom. She has referenced her staunchly-held independence in song more than once\, including in “The Million You Never Made” (Not a Pretty Girl)\, which discusses the act of turning down a lucrative contract\, “The Next Big Thing” (Not So Soft)\, which describes an imagined meeting with a label head-hunter who evaluates the singer based on her looks\, and “Napoleon” (Dilate)\, which sympathizes sarcastically with an unnamed friend who did sign with a label. After recording with Ani in 1999\, Prince described the effects of her independence. “We jammed for four hours and she danced the whole time. We had to quit because she wore us out. After being with her\, it dawned on me why she’s like that – she’s never had a ceiling over her.” \nHer lyrics are rhythmic and poetic\, often autobiographical\, and strongly political. “Trickle Down” discusses racism and gentrification\, while “To The Teeth” speaks about the need for gun control\, and “In or Out” questions society’s traditional sexuality labels. Most recently\, the 2016 single “Play God” has become a battle cry for reproductive rights. Rolling Stone said of her in 2012\, “The world needs more radicals like Ani DiFranco: wry\, sexy\, as committed to beauty and joy as revolution.” \nOver the years she’s performed at countless benefit concerts\, donated songs to many charity albums\, and given time and energy to many progressive causes. She has learned from and demonstrated beside Gloria Steinem\, Jesse Jackson and Dennis Kucinich. In 2004\, she marched in the front row of the March for Women’s Lives along with Margaret Cho\, Janeane Garofalo\, Whoopi Goldberg\, and many others\, later performing on the main stage. She has beaten the drum for voter registration and turnout with “Vote Dammit” tours in multiple presidential election years\, including most recently in 2016. She’s currently on the board of Roots of Music\, an organization that provides at-risk youth with support and musical education in New Orleans\, and the creative council of EMILY’s List\, which helps elect pro-choice Democratic women to office. \nAs an iconic songwriter and social activist\, she has been the inspiration for woman artists and entrepreneurs for over two decades. She has been featured on the covers of SPIN\, Ms.\, Relix\, High Times\, and many others for her music and activism. She is the idol of empowered women who came of age in the 90s and continues to bring younger fans into her fold. From Alice Walker to Amy Schumer\, Ani is respected by wordsmiths across milieux and generations. She blazed the trail for self-directed artist careers and has been cited by musicians from Prince to Bon Iver as an inspiration to release their own art outside of the major label system. \nAni has been the recipient of many honors and awards\, including a Grammy for best album package (Evolve)\, the Woman of Courage Award from the National Organization for Women\, the Gay/Lesbian American Music Award for Female Artist of the Year\, and the Woody Guthrie Award. At the 2013 Winnipeg Folk Festival she received their prestigious Artistic Achievement Award\, and an honorary doctorate from the University of Winnipeg. In 2017\, she received a Lifetime Achievement Award from A2IM (a nonprofit trade organization that represents independent record labels) and the Outstanding Achievement for Global Activism Award from A Global Friendship.
