Acción Latina Presents - PASEO ARTISTICO: “History Matters in the Mission 2010 - 2020” San Francisco, CA - Paseo Artístico, the Mission District’s signature free, bilingual art walk, returns on Saturday, October 11, 2025 from 1PM-8PM, with a powerful theme: “History Matters in the Mission 2010 - 2020.” From the glory and excitement of three SF Giants World Series championships to the struggles with second wave tech gentrification and increasing evictions in the Mission, the reignited sanctuary city movement, Google busses, protests against police violence and hunger strikes by the Frisco 5, Paseo Artístico brings back the stories of the last decade and invites artists to pay tribute to cultural moments, social movements, and artistic voices.
The event will span multiple venues across the Mission, with a curated schedule of visual art, live music, poetry, dance, and film. Each piece illuminates the local history and collective memory of the 2010s. Highlights include Alejandra Rubio’s exhibit at Artillery Ceramics & Gallery “The Mission Is Not Dead” at 1PM exploring the building on 22nd and Mission that was ravaged by fire in 2015 killing one person and leaving 60 people homeless and recently approved for a 10 story market rate housing development by the former owner. Also an Artist Talk by Alexa Treviño about Existir es Resistir : a photographic reflection on the Latino community as culture keepers, protectors of memory, and children of ancestral resistance with live AfroColombian marimba music from Neblinas del Pacifico at 4PM. Finally MCCLA Teatro Comunitario takes SF Giant World Series champion Sergio Romo’s T-Shirt and turns it into a bilingual play called “I Just Look Illegal” at 6PM at Mission Cultural Center.
