Michelle Obama and the Arts

Michelle Obama “The arts can enrich all of us in this nation as individuals. The arts can enrich all of our communities and the country. And the arts can connect us to each other like nothing else can.”

Arts as a Cause for Hope www.whitehouse.gov First Lady Michelle Obama and Russian First Lady Svetlana Medvedev enjoyed a music and dance program at the Duke Ellington School for the Arts in Washington, D.C.

Art Conspiracy Events & TMtB

This year’s Art Conspiracy will benefit Today Marks the Beginning! On Friday, July 16th at 7:00 p.m. Art Conspiracy will host SEED, its annual operational fundraiser at the Sons of Herman Hall located at 3414 Elm Street in Dallas.

This year’s SEED will feature clocks created by 30 local artists. The hands and the plywood have been provided, but each artist has the chance to modify, construct or deconstruct the clocks in the way they’d like. In Art Conspiracy fashion, the clocks will be auctioned off live. The starting bid for each piece is $20.

The event will feature music from The Cocky Americans, Jacob Metcalf and Johnny Beauford and will be hosted by Reid Robinson.
The money raised during the SEED event will be used to fund the operating costs associated with Art Conspiracy’s large scale 2010 fundraiser.
