With support from the California Arts Council, OTHER MINDS will sustain its core operations through a landmark season that includes the 30th Other Minds Festival at Brava Theater in San Francisco, the world premiere of Theresa Wong’s Vox Lumina, and the PastForward series at Mills College at Northeastern University in Oakland. General operating support will enable Other Minds to maintain sliding-scale ticketing across all public events and continue free public access to broadcasts, podcasts, and archival recordings.
Founded in 1993, Other Minds in San Francisco is a leading organization for new and experimental music, devoted to championing the most original, eccentric, and underrepresented creative voices in contemporary music, with an emphasis on composers of the American Experimental Tradition. From festival concerts, film screenings, radio broadcasts, and the commissioning of new works, to producing and releasing CDs, preserving thousands of interviews and concerts and distributing them free on the Internet, Other Minds has become one of the world’s major conservators of new music’s ecology.
