Rebellion is the Greatest Expression of Joy
<p>Me? I am very active in the arts - I travel internationally teaching dance, musicality and stagecraft for a living. Producing events is obviously a passion with me. I am an internationally published artist and author, with some of my work translated into Spanish. I home school, and live in a domestic ArtHaus called AwesomeTown.</p> <p>The festivals described in this campaign are in the Asheville, NC, area, and will remain there rooted in that fabulous eclectic arts community. My personal base has shifted to Richmond, VA, where I hope to start another festival in the next year or two.</p> <p>I love the crowd-funding concept because, unlike with corporate funding and government grants, it puts the future of the arts, of social commentary, and social evolution in the hands of ordinary, everyday, fantastic people like you. The world needs to be moved forward by thinking, feeling, informed and empowered decision-makers. And with crowd-funding, WE decide. Not neccessarily to sell a product, but to create a world we actually want to live in. That is, frankly, amazing!</p>
