The 19th-annual GIRLFLY curriculum poses the question, “Who owns the corner?” We will bring students examples where community voices have manifested or are working to manifest real ownership on the city’s streets. We will look at models by The Women’s Building in the Mission, the APICC/KULARTS Performing Arts Space South of Market, and 111 Taylor Street in the Tenderloin, as well as Space 124. Students will explore the theme through apparatus-based dance, site specific performance, and an activist module led by visual artist Adrian Arias.
– Applicants must be between the ages of 14-21 and must be women or Gender Non-Conforming Youths
