I will be hosting a Back to school event with the aim of assisting 400 children in the community of Seaview Gardens with school supplies. These supplies include but not limited to school bags, note books, pencils, sharpeners, erasers, rulers, calculators, socks, pencil case, umbrellas, pens, highlighters and etc.
Many children are unable to go to school because of issues like these. Have you ever seen a child carrying a plastic bag to school? A child has on shoes with no socks? A child has one book for every subject? A child walking in the rain because they have no umbrella? A child without pencil or book at school? This is the reality in the streets and I've seen it so many times so when asked to plan and submit my events for the year, this was definitely a priority for me. Children are the future so why not ensure that they are properly equipped. Join me in this, an excellent cause, PLEASE DONATE!!! 6 notebooks, a pack of pens, pencils, anything you can afford. You would be surprise the lives you can change with these small items..
I am also seeking partnerships, sponsorship and volunteers for the day. We will be having free medical for the kids, surprises, giveaways and book vouchers! 
To make this possible, I NEED your SUPPORT & HELP!

The National Gallery of Jamaica’s Last Sundays programme for July 31, 2016, will feature a musical performance by Jane Macgizmo and guided tours of the recently opened Kingston – Part 1: The City and Art exhibition.

Denieze Anderson, popularly known as Jane Macgizmo, is a recording artiste, songwriter, producer & designer. Jane’s artistic passion was instilled at the age of seven by her parents who encouraged her to take music and art classes. She studied film production at Northern Caribbean University and also became a designer & photographer, both of which have aided her music career. Her second release “Babylon” quickly became an anthem to her supporters, as it captures the enticing and defiant nature of Jane's music. It was the music video for this song, set in lush green scenery high in the mountains, filmed, directed, and edited by Jane and Tricia Bent that truly brought the message of the song to life and it has been in regular rotation on BET SOUL. The record label Zincfence Records has also released a dubmix of “Babylon.” Jane’s inventive persona is what propels her works, without boundaries and across genres such as dubtronica, indie reggae, jazz and EDM. The fearless creative has a catalogue of exciting music, stimulating visuals, and confident messages in preparation for the world to experience.

Kingston – Part 1: The City and Art is the first instalment of a two-part exhibition series that explores the role of Kingston in the development of Jamaican art and, conversely, the role of art in the development of the city of Kingston. The present edition of Kingston features artists such as Isaac Mendez Belisario, Carl Abrahams, Hope Brooks, Edna Manley, Cecil Baugh, Kapo, Di-Andre Caprice Davis, Roy Reid, and Stanford Watson and the iconic Jamaican feature film The Harder They Come (1972, dir. Perry Henzell). The exhibition examines how Jamaica’s turbulent but culturally fertile capital city has generated many of the circumstances and opportunities that have propelled the development of Jamaican art over time, from the natural resources to the economic activities and institutions. It also explores how artists have been inspired in their work by the events, personalities and tales that have defined life in the city, starting with the 1692 destruction of Port Royal, which led to the establishment of the city. Kingston – Part 1: The City and Art was curated by National Gallery Assistant Curator Monique Barnett-Davidson and continues until October 30, 2016.

The National Gallery of Jamaica’s doors will be open from 11 am to 4 pm on Sunday, August 28, 2016 and the musical programme will start at 1:30 pm. As is customary, admission and guided tours will be free for the day, but contributions to the National Gallery’s donations box are always welcome. The National Gallery gift and coffee shops will also be open and proceeds from these ventures help to fund programmes such as Last Sundays and exhibitions such as Kingston.

*MesoAmérica Resiste Story-telling*
MesoAmérica Resiste is the long awaited final instalment in the Beehive’s graphic trilogy about globalization in the Americas! 
This collaboratively produced educational illustration was created through an intensive process of grassroots research that started in 2004, when an initial team from the US, Canada, and Mexico traveled together from Mexico to Panama to meet with communities organizing against the mega-infrastructure projects of a regional integration plan then known as Plan Puebla Panama. 9 years in the making, the Mesoamérica Resiste graphic reflects the Beehive’s efforts to document and share diverse stories of communities defending their sovereignty and building alternatives to top-down development plans - especially organizing led by Indigenous peoples, 
who have fought back against colonialism and genocide for centuries. 

More on the presentation at: http://www.beehivecollective.org/english/front.htm

*True Cost of Coal*

"Coal keeps the lights on" - but at what cost? We travelled to central Appalachia to meet with communities
 fighting to stop mountaintop removal, an extreme form of mining that blasts ancient mountains into toxic moonscapes. 
This presentation is a multi-tool for understanding the big picture and how to change it.
