On September 6 from 1 to 4 p.m., Afatasi the Artist will present "Finders Keepers," an interactive experience inviting Bayview-Hunters Point residents to rediscover India Basin Waterfront Park (900 Innes Avenue) and the surrounding neighborhood in fresh, meaningful ways. The event will start at Shipwright's Cottage in the park, with an artist talk at the neighboring Box Shop (951 Hudson Avenue).

Afatasi will create small, hand-welded sculptures and hide them throughout the park for community members to discover and take home. As participants search for these one-of-a-kind pieces, they’ll enjoy a community celebration with local food, music, jump houses, free haircuts, community rowing with Rocking the Boat, and a live welding demo by the artist.

Finders Keepers seeks to reclaim public space for creativity and community and pays tribute to Bayview’s legacy of skilled makers and artisans—especially Black women welders who worked in the shipyards during WWII. For more information, click here: https://tinyurl.com/y7dzhe43
