MAPP is a lively, old-school Mission-wide party, well-attended by folks from the neighborhood and afar with bimonthly events all over the Mission for over 15 years. MAPP is dedicated to cultivating, building and defending the culture, history, character and community in the Mission District—transforming public spaces, non-profits, street corners, BART stations, cafes, bars, taquerias, garages and homes, into venues with free live music, spoken word, performance art, film screenings, delicious food, and a wide range of unique happenings.
Be sure to check out additional CMC-MAPP performance events this year in June!
