Each program will include an open mic segment, guest DJ sets and vendor tables, and will conclude with a 90-minute performance featuring artists from independent hip-hop record labels. This event will allow the Athens music community to network, dance, and celebrate independent hip-hop artists of many different styles, said Montu Miller, CEO of ATHfactor-Liberty Entertainment and ambassador of Athens hip-hop.
Nathan Jackson s remarkable story continued this month with his selection as a 2021 United States Artists Fellow in traditional arts.
The Chicago-based national arts funding association on Feb. 3 announced Jackson s inclusion in the 2021 class of 60 fellows from across the country who were chosen for their bold artistic vision and significant impact, with each demonstrating generosity and care toward field-building that continues to inspire and propel their discipline.
Jackson, a world-renowned Tlingit master carver, designer and painter whose artistic endeavors stretch back to the late 1950s, was among seven individuals honored in the Traditional Arts category.
Lynette Miranda, USA program director, said the association is incredibly excited to announce Jackson as one of the 2021 Fellows.
