AfroSolo Arts Festival Kicked-Off Its 27th Annual Festival on August 7th with a Free Concert in Yerba Buena Gardens
The Arts Festival was presented in collaboration with the Yerba Buena Gardens Festival which featured a free Jazz concert with a performance by Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids.
We were blessed with a gorgeous San Francisco day, a wonderful audience and fantastic music enjoyed by all. We’d like to thank everyone who attended.
Idris Ackamoor is the guiding spirit of the San Francisco performance company Cultural Odyssey, and the founder and artistic director of the storied jazz and world music ensemble Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids.
Ackamoor titled his performance “Dream Keepers Awake” in celebration of Mayor London Breed, San Francisco’s Board of Supervisor’s President Shaman Walton, and the entire Board’s historical precedent of reassigning a portion of its Police and Sheriff Departments funds intending to break the cycle of poverty and involvement in the criminal justice system for Black people in San Francisco. Funding from the Dream Keeper Initiative helped to make this event possible in part. For more information, visit #[email protected].
