Join us for Rooftop Radio: Noise Pop on Thursday, July 16, 6 p.m.–9 p.m! (Doors open at 5:30 p.m.)
Step into an unforgettable evening of rhythm, soul, and emotion rooted in the richness of Latinx musical traditions, presented in partnership by SFMOMA and the Bay Area’s beloved and home-grown Noise Pop.
Kick off the evening with an electrifying, bass-forward DJ set by mare.e.fresh who blends genres from Cumbia to Reggaeton with a distinct Bay Area sensibility. Then, experience a duo performance by Y La Bamba, where indie folk meets vibrant rhythms of Mexican heritage.
Special food and drink will be available for purchase (please note: only cashless payment methods accepted).
Plus, from 5:45 p.m. to 7:45 p.m., enjoy live caricature painting by Bay Area⁠–based Ecuadorian visual artist Vanessa Shive, whose work is characterized by vibrant color, texture, and experimentation. A few lucky visitors will have the chance to pose for Shive and take home their caricature. A sign-up form will be provided at the event on a first-come, first-served basis.
Bring your friends. Have fun!
