January 5 Eastside Art Openings+

Mississippi Records has been a champion at bringing unusual music to the Hollywood theater, such as Sun Ra's Arkestra. We can't bring back New York's Moondog, but tonight you can have East and West Coast street musician Space Lady. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrEcJMWRNT0. The Portland Museum of Modern Art showed the work of self-taught artists and drew Space Lady here - https://portlandmuseumofmodernart.com/SPACE-LADY. The PMOMA curator went on to helm the Lumber Room. BTW, Sun Ra's movie Space is the Place is a classic of Afrofuturism worth the time. Space Lady at the Hollywood Theater 4122 NE Sandy 7:30PM $12 Sold Out
