Join Bindlestiff Studio on Thursday, November 29, at the 111 Minna Gallery, as it celebrates and honors outstanding community leaders and partners at the first annual Bindleball, a black and white gala. The Bindleball, Bindlestiff's hip and quirky take on a traditional cocktail party, will also serve as a fundraiser and art auction. All proceeds will help with the costs of moving back to the theater's original location on 6th Street and Howard.

Bindlestiff Studio is the only permanent Filipino American performing arts space in the nation. Rooted in SF's South of Market (SoMa) neighborhood. Bindlestiff aims to cultivate, inspire and mentor the next generation of Filipino American artists and community leaders in an affordable, community-based professional theater setting.

Founded in 1989, Bindlestiff flourished for many years as an experimental black box theater. After 18 years it has now evolved into a vibrant cultural institution, presenting hundreds of events and productions each year including theater, dance, music, comedy, spoken-word performances and film showcases. Bindlestiff also offers low to no cost workshops in script writing, stand up comedy, vocal training, acting, directing, and producing for stage.
