The next installment of our concert series, "Come Closer", is around the corner.
We are excited to welcome
@rubyibarra , a rapper, spoken word artist, and director from the Bay Area, CA
Ibarra has toured across the United States, Canada, and the Philippines. She is the co-founder of the Pinays Rising Scholarship program as well as the Bay Area independent record label, Bolo Music Group. She has been featured on notable publications such as Rolling Stone, NPR, Huffington Post, Paper Mag, Vogue Philippines, Billboard Philippines, the Today show, NY Times, and the LA Times.
Her latest release, "Bakunawa," is the first single from her forthcoming sophomore album and is also the winning song of NPR's 2025 Tiny Desk Contest.
Inspired by bell hook’s powerful invitation to “come closer and you will see: feminism is for everybody,” this concert series features edgy, genre-defying sounds, and boundary-pushing voices inviting music lovers of all kinds to lean in, listen up, and experience something unexpected.
Come closer—and hear how feminism moves.
