This September the Project Room will be reimagined by Oakland-based artist Sadie Barnette. The Eagle Creek Saloon was the first #blackowned #gay bar in San Francisco, which was established by the artist’s father Rodney Barnette, founder of the Compton, CA chapter of the Black Panther Party. From 1990-93 Barnette’s father operated the bar and offered a safe space for the multiracial #LGBTQ community who were marginalized at other social spaces throughout the city at that time. Nearly 30 years on, ICA LA has the pleasure to announce @sadiebarnette will recreate her father’s bar as a glittering installation activated by performances, talks and social events opening September 29, 2019 @theicala | #comingsoon #theneweaglecreeksaloon #sadiebarnette #icala
