Ian Friday
Ian Friday is an audio/visual curator and performance artist who explores and exhibits cultural traditions and histories of people from the African diaspora. Founder of Global Soul Music, Ian produces music that archive and uncover ongoing black musical cultures connecting house, soul, afro beat, jazz and world music. As Associate Director and Performance Curator of The Colored Girls Museum, Ian assists in developing programming and creates marketing for the museum’s social media platforms. The histories of people from African descent have been passed down through the ages primarily through oral tradition. Music and art serve as conduits to deepening our understanding of those narratives.
Samuel Ogilvie
Samuel Ogilvie’s multi-faceted creative journey began in Jamaica, where he spent the first 6 years of his life… beginning with acting, he participated in a family-led theatrical performance for his neighborhood when he was 5 years old.
