Join Acción Latina and partners as we honor International Women’s Day with an outstanding segment of Paseo Artistico, the Mission District’s only regular Free Bilingual Artwalk for the entire family.
Paseo Artistico: Women’s Health and Healing will take place Saturday March 8 all day featuring women artists and community members sharing their work and showcasing a vibrant array of performances and cultural practices that support women’s health and healing. The event also celebrates Acción Latina’s Fatima Ramirez as she says goodbye to the organization after serving as Executive Director for the last 6 years. Come dance, sing, and enjoy interactive opportunities to celebrate women with theater, musical performances, painting exhibits, and more along the 24th Street/Calle 24 Latino Cultural District. Free for the entire family.
A first generation Salvadoran American raised in San Francisco’s Mission District, Fatima Ramirez has shown admirable leadership and brought important growth to all of Acción Latina’s media and arts programs. This Paseo Artistico is dedicated to her accomplishments and also to wish her the best in her next position. This month’s Paseo Artístico emphasizes intergenerational women's health and community healing through participation by inviting all to join a clay making activation at Artillery Ceramics Studio, a Mayan weaving and poetry performance and workshop on the sidewalk in front of Dance Mission, an Afro-Nicaraguan Garifuna dance class at La Placita, a candle making and flower headdress workshop at Calle 24 Office, youth Latin jazz concert at Evolved SF, and more. The program also features comedy from local star Marga Gomez at Medicine for Nightmares Bookstore, theater performance from Berta Hernandez at Mission Cultural Center and paintings by Xochitl Nevel Guerrero that honor women’s protest and resistance as healing. A special Encuentritos Concert featuring local musical bands will join the party to bid farewell to Fatima Ramirez at Acción Latina.
