Tenderloin Museum (TLM) presents a site-specific homage to one of San Francisco’s most storied jazz clubs in a day-long mini music festival featuring performances by Lavay Smith & Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers, SF Recovery Theater, plus a community-based music production, Tenderloin Voices, by Bay Area jazz composer, trumpeter and singer Sarah Wilson produced by the Tenderloin Museum in collaboration with Larkin Street Youth Services, Skywatchers, and Tenderloin writer Lyzette Wanzer. Presented as part of Sounds of the Tenderloin, a series of TLM public programs that animate the neighborhood’s undersung cultural history through live music (made possible by generous support from Hardly Strictly Bluegrass).
Event is free.
