An Evening with Sky Hopinka
Saturday, April 4, 2026 | 7pm
Location: Slash (1150 25th St, Building B, San Francisco)
Free event with limited capacity | Register here (registration not required but appreciated)
Join Sonic Transmissions curator Gina Basso and artist Sky Hopinka at Slash for a celebratory gathering as we head into the exhibition’s final weeks. With Hopinka as our special guest, we’ll take a deeper dive into his creative world through a three-part event that explores his approaches to sound in his video and writing practices.
The event opens with a reading by Hopinka, followed by a 16mm film screening that puts his film Kicking the Clouds into dialogue with two short films selected by the artist from the Canyon Cinema catalogue. The evening concludes with a short conversation between Basso and Hopinka and an audience Q&A.
This event follows a daytime screening of the feature-length film Powwow People, directed by Sky Hopinka and introduced by the artist, at the Roxie Theater. Learn more about this event and get your tickets here.
