Live In Living Color Art Show

Live In Living Color is a celebration of arts and culture among black people in Colorado. Although art is a creative medium that brings people together, this event is intended to highlight minority artists collections. In conjunction to the arts showcase, we will have facilitated discussion around how art can help heal trauma around oppression and disenfranchisement.

Sip on your choice of over 60 different wines with Vinue's self-serve sampling, enjoy made from scratch appetizers, and check out local businesses selling art, skin and hair care, books and more.

"Nowadays" is a raw and brutally honest social commentary on the current American experience. It sets out to contrast 2017 against the struggles and triumphs from previous generations. The album's instrumentation is a gumbo of not only different genres ( Blues, Jazz, Negro Spirituals, Hip Hop, Classical, Trap) but different time periods ( 1930s Southern Churches, 1940s Juke Joints, 1950s Smokey Jazz Clubs, 1990s West Coast Gangsta Parties, 2000s Neo-Soul Poetry Slams,and 2010s Disenfranchised Trenches).With it's lush production,intricate arrangements, and time traveling soundscapes, "Nowadays" allows a space for members of the Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Zennials to all have a seat at the family table in order to begin a much needed conversation.

Check out the album at dkakawaynewatts.com

Firelane Music & Media Entertainment strives to entertain, provide exposure, and build community by curating soul enriching experiences. Come continue the conversation, taste wines from around the world, support local artists/businesses, and meet professionals across different industries.
