Brava! for Women in the Arts’ annual event takes over the streets and alleys of San Francisco’s Mission District to celebrate and preserve its living cultural heritage! Now in its sixth year, Baile en la Calle: The Mural Dances draws the Bay Area’s most dynamic dance companies and performing artists to interpret the murals through music and dance, alongside detailed narration by Precita Eyes Muralists docents. Baile en la Calle: The Mural Dances provides audiences an intricate look at each mural and its relationship to the culture and the life of the Mission. This year’s tour includes a new mural by the artist Agana commissioned by Brava to celebrate the opening of our long-awaited storefront spaces, as well as "Take it From the Top: Latin Rock" which covers an entire house, Juana Alicia's 2004 "La Llorona’s Sacred Waters," Swoon's untitled 2016 wheat-paste mural, and a few surprises!
