Creative submissions have been extended until midnight tonight for Friday’s Slideluck Potshow, a collaborative artistic slideshow presentation and chance for food, drink and conversation sharing at the SOMA photography center LeftSpace. Area and international creators alike present thought-provoking creative work around a theme. As this month’s theme is “nourishment,” participants are encouraged to bring a dish to pass (suggestions include seven-layer dip, lobster ravioli, barbecue tofu, or Meyer lemon bars—it’s a foodie group, after all). Photographer Michael Jang will serve as the guest curator for the event, which is a collaboration with the community and food movement organization Eat-Ins.
New York transplant Miki Johnson had been looking for a vibrant arts and photography community when she moved to San Francisco last year. She started working with Slideluck Potshow founder Casey Kelbaugh on putting together local events. “They were always so much fun — interesting people, good food, great art — so when he mentioned doing a slideshow in San Francisco, I was eager to help,” she said. “It’s been a great way for me to connect with art communities in the Bay Area and, I hope, will help them to connect with each other.”
