I had an amazing experience mentoring YAM – Young Artists Movement – in the creation of this monumental projection for New Orleans’s Gallier Hall for Luna Fete 2019. Sarah Woodward from Arts Council New Orleans was the ever thoughtful supervisor, and Sara Alary and Staff at the Best Buy Teen Center in the New Orleans Public Library were immensely helpful.
The talented YAM members: Shanti Broom, Nathalie Figueroa, Jermaine Lindsey, Victoria Phan, and Elijah Turk.
Music by Zaire Rouege, Lyrics by Elijah Turk.
