My Role: General Member of the Public & I held a student workshop on the history of hip hop and street art. Login to send private message

January 31, 2011

I was hired by artserve to perform during their GUVVY awards ceremony for jazz legend Bob James. I was honored to be a part of this and was very impressed with artserves' commitment to celebrating and commemorating artists of all genres that hail from Michigan. I also was asked to hold a educational workshop for kids as part of GUVVY student event that focused on the history of hip hop and it's origins with street art. I was thrilled to be able to connect with the youth and give them access to the history of this art form and culture that they may have difficulties receiving anywhere else. I was impressed with Artserve for helping expand our youth's knowledge and experiences and I would love to cone back and contribute to any other workshops or events for students if they were to ask me. Overall, I am impressed with Artserve's committment to better the community and expand and the opportunities of the arts in the state of Michigan. They show they are leaders and teachers as well as followers and students and this avant garde style of pursuit for a better community should be applauded. The arts are extremely important to our culture, our society, and our future. I feel Artserve understands this and I respect what they're doing and what they are trying to accomplish. Thanks Artserve Michigan!
