Rooted in Art Lecture Series - Linnea Valdivia
Oct

Rooted in Art Lecture Series - Linnea Valdivia

In "Unruly Bodies: Monstrosity, Race and Gender in Pop Culture," Linnea Valdivia examines the figure of the freak or monster in popular culture as a site of both liberation and control — and asks how race shapes whether female unruliness is celebrated or condemned. Drawing on performance studies and critical race theory, Linnea's session will include video screenings, guided discussion, and an interactive exercise that invites participants to analyze visual culture through an intersectional lens. Linnea is the Program Manager for the GALA Pride and Diversity Center in San Luis Obispo.
All events are free and open to the public. They are held on the third Wednesday of each month August - November 2026; 6-7:30 p.m. in the SLO Public Library Community Room. Each event includes a 10–15 minute community update from SLOCAC and City staff followed by a 60-minute presentation and Q&A.

28th Annual Vocal Jazz Festival Concert featuring The Sistering
Oct

28th Annual Vocal Jazz Festival Concert featuring The Sistering

  • California 1 San Luis Obispo, California, 93405 United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

The hottest new vocal jazz collective in the country, The Sistering, features Lois Deloatch, Nnenna Freelon, Kate McGarry, and Lenora Zenzalai Helm. Their first album came out in March and they performed at Carnegie Hall twelve days later!

The Sistering captures the pure magic that unfolds when four highly accomplished jazz artists join together to uplift and inspire one another—on and off the stage. Their compositions already reveal a beautifully interconnected journey through themes of family, love, loss, and badassery—rendering the project both a memoir and a cultural mirror.

Infused with soul, folk, funk, and spoken word, The Sistering ventures across wide musical terrain with improvisation at its heart. Song titles like “Combat Boots and Glass Slippers” by Lenora, “Circle” by Kate, “Follow the Stream” by Lois, and “A Brother Just Like You” by Nnenna hint at the emotional depth and narrative spirit behind the music.

Accompanied by a world-class jazz quartet, The Sistering takes shape as a powerful and vibrant testament to the power of creative alliance. Continuing that theme, Cuesta’s top student vocal ensemble, Cuesta Voce, will open the evening as well as close out the concert with our headliners in some spectacular large group pieces. It’ll be an unforgettable evening!

All nationally renowned educators, the members of The Sistering will be sharing their expertise with our Cuesta College music students throughout the festival.

Tickets available at tickets.cuesta.edu, or call the CPAC Box Office at (805) 546-3198.
