Culture Carriers

Last night, I had the great privilege of attending an event called Coast to Coast at Whittier College's Ruth B. Shannon theater. The show was a culmination of amazing artists, musicians, dancers, and poets from both the East and the West. My main reason for attending was to show some love and support for the very talented Burmah Flores, but I was pleasantly surprised by the overflow of talent and creativity displayed by all of the other artists. Coast to Coast was my first experience with live spoken word, and I have fallen in love with it. I was truly moved by every artist and every performer.

I have an Art History professor who once said something pretty amazing: "You, as artists and designers, are culture carriers." After last night, I have never been more proud to be a part of a generation with such a unique and gifted voice (fellow classmates included).

We are Culture Carriers.
