Diaspora Arts Connection is proud to present the opening of two Iranian artists' latest project in San Francisco's Clarion Alley. Join us for a street party on Saturday, July 11, 2015 between 1:00 and 5:00 p.m. to celebrate the latest contribution of Iranian painter and graffiti artist Ck-1 and visual artist Shaghayegh Cyrous to San Francisco's Clarion Alley Project. We will be joined by local musicians.

This is the second time the young artists are making a contribution to the Clarion Alley project. This project is in memory of three female Iranian literary figures, poet Forough Farrokhzad, poet Simin Behbahani, and author Simin Daneshvar.

We will gather at Clarion Alley and read poetry, play music and take pictures with the mural and meet the artists. Please feel free to come prepared to read some of these beloved poets' poetry in Farsi or in English.



This is a free event on the street. Feel free to bring your kids. Pets welcome, too!
