Raise
a glass to Dionysus at our bacchanal-themed wine party and local chefs’
tasting reception at SFMOMA on March 17.
WHAT
Food & Thought
at SFMOMA with Meatpaper and Blue Bottle
Bacchanal: Bay Area chefs present tasting plates on the theme of bacchanalia, in celebration of the “How Wine Became Modern” show at SFMOMA. Also in keeping with the bacchanal theme: Locally produced wine and beer!
After the bacchanal, our friends at Pop-Up Magazine present a very wine-themed “Sidebar” — a live event in the atrium showcasing writers, filmmakers, photographers and public radio producers.

ABOUT SFMOMA: NOW PLAYING
SFMOMA:
Now Playing invites artists to animate SFMOMA in unexpected
ways — and audiences to see the museum in a different light.
Partygoers will experience the atrium as a projection chamber, a
hidden annex as a bar/lounge, and artists playing the architecture.
The evenings also include hors d'oeuvres and cash bar.

9:00 p.m. Pop-Up Magazine presents Sidebar: Wine!
Pop-Up Magazine is unlike any other magazine. It won't arrive in your mailbox, and you can't buy it from a newsstand or read it online. Why? Because each issue is a live performance, created for the stage and presented to an audience in real time. Pop-Up showcases writers, documentary filmmakers, photographers, and radio producers — contributors to The New Yorker, This American Life, The New York Times Magazine, NPR's All Things Considered, and Wired — plus Oscar-winning filmmakers, best-selling authors, and acclaimed artists whose stories and ideas unfold like a magazine, without the paper.
Tonight, Pop-Up debuts a new between-issues format: Sidebar. With SFMOMA's exhibition How Wine Became Modern: Design + Wine 1976 to Now in mind, Pop-Up's first Sidebar tackles the culture, science, history, politics, and humor surrounding our favorite drink. This Now Playing program also nods to the Wine exhibition with a rare screening of Brian De Palma's first film Dionysus in 69, a split-screen record of Richard Schechner's landmark restaging of The Bacchae with the experimental Performance Group, and Meatpaper magazine leads a Bacchanal themed "Food & Thought" event in the Rooftop Garden.
