Now hear this, now hear this, it's gonna be lit: DJ Pam the Funkstress to hit the main stage at Night Light! The Bay Area DJ was on the road with Prince during his lavish Piano and a Microphone Tour. She DJ'd his after-parties with her well-honed blend of classic funk and golden-era hip-hop. (In her lively sets, she’s been known to shift fluidly from Divine Sounds to the Gap Band and DJ Kwest.) She was a member of that infamous, socially charged Oakland rap group with Boots Riley in the 1990s. Night Light is curated by Melorra Green and Karen Seneferu.

Generally this page is reserved for promoting art events and happenings, and to celebrate the SF art scene. This post is different. It is critical that as lovers of art, culture and creative freedom you register to vote. The election's outcome in November is critical to all who enjoy freedom - creative freedom, personal freedom. If you are registered to vote make sure that everyone you know who is eligible to vote is also registered. Cast your vote for the candidate who ...will best protect your personal and creative freedom. Cast your vote for the future generations who should be entitled to the same freedoms (and more) that we now enjoy. And if you haven't already, now's a good time to become an activist. Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight. Paint, sing, dance, express and share the message of freedom and take all that energy to the polls. See more
