This week we were able to sit down with three young local artists, Brianna Clarke, Kahvontay Slaughter and Vania Raquel. We came together to discuss the pathway of taking a hobby and recognizing it as a passion to then translate into a sophisticated career, especially here within the city. We spoke to the current financial and artistic challenges many young emerging artists are facing due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Join our conversation as we discuss the importance of staying connected, recognizing the power and value of our artistic freedom, inspiring one another, and making light of our current situation.
