Brandi will discuss her writing career and provide advice and practical tips on both the creative and business sides of the film and television industry. \nThe daughter of a juvenile detention officer mom and 2nd strike convicted felon dad led Brandi to writing characters that explore duality.

SUMMARY:Artist Talks
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents the Artist Talks for “MANE” and “Hidden Gems” in the East Atrium. \nThe East Atrium at Crosstown Arts\nSaturday\, July 20\, 2024\nTime: 2-4 pm\nTickets: Free + open to the public \n\nCrosstown Arts presents the Artist Talks for “MANE” and “Hidden Gems” exhibitions\, moderated by Shahidah Jones and francis\, the Truman. There will also be a performance by spoken-word artist Matt Esteis (Strength in Words). \n\nMANE\nIn the South we have a language like no other. Some people think it’s drawn out\, others think it’s charming. Some folks may appropriate\, but none can replicate. In this culmination of speech\, artists expose their own experiences with southern vernacular. All content will reflect the various interpretations from local Memphis-based artist in their hometown. The show will explore how southern speech has shaped their view of community and themselves. \nHidden Gems\nTo level up we must get out of our own way. That can begin with taking a chance or creating one. In this exhibition we search for the hidden gems in our community. This show includes artists with modest visibility and offers them an opportunity to show up and be uncovered. \nCurated by Najee Strickland and Kiara Sally
