Mmhmm, we did it again. Released a
CD and threw a party for it. Thanks to my newest favorite studio lady,
Jacki Paolella, we cranked it out AND its all over the place {insert happy dance HERE}. Talk about good food and good fun, according to the attendees, we really know how to throw a party. I approve that message! One of our dancers is Ethiopian and catered a few of the dishes she learned from her mom {insert happy dance encore HERE}
Naturally, we had a jamming good time with friends, family, and colleagues as we performed excerpts from the CD. Unfortunately, famed poet,
Tim Seibles, who recites Savannah Winds was unable to attend the party, but lots of folks took a little of Time home with their own CD purchase
.
We
had a host of dancers from our Atumpan African Dance group to help start the
party off right, plus interactive games with our audience. In addition to
our onstage fun, we were able to debut our signature corn-hole boards, while
the face painter dubbed cute little children with either our company logo, our
CD cover art, or a picture of their choosing. Mancala was a popular
game, aside from the food. No mistake, I meant food, 'cause everything
was delish.
I don't think I
mentioned that we were at the historic Attucks Theatre for the fun. Aside from their
regular season of performances with national acts, the Attucks has a pretty
cool Arts Incubator setup that allows a teaching space for fantastic artists like ourselves. The Crispus
Attucks Cultural Center is the side of things that coordinates the educational
classes by the Artists, as well as a full summer camp and camp series, plus
extended community stuff like tutoring and residency stuff at schools and
universities in Norfolk. We love this place.
