DESCRIPTION:Shotgun Players is proud to partner with local artist Geralyn Montano on a 
 new neighborhood placemaking mural to illustrate their indigenous land 
 acknowledgement. The public art mural will be installed outside on the west 
 wall of The Ashby Stage, highly visible to both pedestrians and passing 
 motorists. The building, located across the street from Ashby BART, is in 
 South Berkeley's Lorin District, one of the most diverse, artistic, and 
 transit accessible commercial districts in the City of Berkeley and the 
 traditional Lisjan Ohlone territory of Huichin. \n\nShotgun Players will 
 host a free public unveiling and celebration for this powerful artwork on 
 Saturday, July 23, 2022 at 6pm. Local community leaders will be on hand to 
 talk about Indigenous land back & rematriation efforts. Refreshments and 
 amaranth seed gifts will be available.\n\nShotgun Players is a company of 
 artists determined to create bold, relevant, affordable theatre that 
 inspires and challenges audiences and artists alike to re-examine our 
 lives, our community, and the ever-changing world around us.\n\nThe Ashby 
 Stage, located on unceded Lisjan Ohlone land, has become known for its 
 amazing murals. Shotgun reached out to Sogorea Te' in 2020 for guidance on 
 our land acknowledgement statement. This began a larger conversation about 
 how our organizations could partner to create greater visibility and action 
 for the local indigenous community. Thus the concept of a mural was born, 
 as a way to create a highly visible public and creative invitation to our 
 local community to learn more about the indigenous legacy of the land and 
 how to support current local rematriation efforts. Along the way we've 
 shared information and history of the Lisjan people past and present, and 
 invite everyone to do the same.\n\nFree\n
