From '5 works of art to see in San Diego in November': Artist and musician Francisco Eme, who is also the gallery director at The Front Arte & Cultura in San Ysidro, has a new immersive installation opening at Best Practice Gallery (in the Bread and Salt building). It's a study of family, death and birds — exploring the way cycles of grief, memory and nature fuse together in a haze. Combining photography, projection, video and drawing with sound, Eme has created what he's calling a "multimedia poem." [Exhibition information]. On view Nov. 12 through Dec. 17, 2022. Opening reception is Nov. 12 from 5-8 p.m. Best Practice, 1955 Julian Ave., Logan Heights. Free. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS Related links: Best Practice on Instagram

1-3 p.m. Visioning A World Without Rape Culture CSUSM Student Workshop Whether or not you are a survivor of child sexual abuse, 100% of us were raised in rape culture. In this workshop, we will hear excerpts from the "Mirror Memoirs" audio archive, in which Black, Indigenous and of color LGBTQI child sexual abuse survivors respond to the questions of what healing, justice and a world without child sexual abuse would look like. Participants will also engage in somatic exercises to stay centered in their bodies and use a variety of art and journaling-based prompts to add their ideas to the "Mirror Memoirs" toolkit.  5:30 p.m. Keynote "Mirror Memoirs" is a national storytelling and organizing project intervening in rape culture by uplifting the narratives, healing and leadership of LGBTQI Black, Indigenous and of color survivors in the movement to end child sexual abuse. Founded by nationally recognized survivor activist Amita Swadhin in 2016, the project has grown from an audio archive of 60 survivor storytellers across 15 states to a national organization with 650 members and a growing network of accomplices. Amita will share some of their own journey to becoming an abolitionist and engaging in the work to end rape culture as their life's work. Finally, they will share some of the lessons from the Mirror Memoirs audio archive, the rationale behind the organization's intersectional, abolitionist approach and an invitation into its membership network.
