TONITE: 1st Black Church Maraca of the New Year

black church maraca is an arts movement a sanctuary. minus the conditions of the church minus the stunna shades of the club. bcm dismisses those avenues raising the bar of fellowship. an open mic. a house party. a manifestation of power when we share each other's resources ideas heart.--

Poet .jade foster Hosts Poetry Open Mic in Washington DC

Received this in an email:

"...so the deal: open mic, featured artist. cash bar. traveling salon. and in a valiant effort to erase ego and encourage unity: always always a house party. and this month's host is ... ME!"

Who is "ME"? Me is the fantastic poet .jade foster, an enigmatic 20-something who is a DC-born creative phenom. Her work has been featured in various poetry anthologies

Check out her poem/photo collage poem@twenty below and click HERE for her MySpace page.

About Liberated Muse Arts Group

Liberated Muse Arts Group is a collective of performers, writers, singers, actors and visual artists who gather to transform spaces into art places.

In 2008, the digital community LiberatedMuse.com was born, connecting creatives from around the globe to discuss, collaborate and fellowship. Hundreds have connected through the online portal, beginning meaningful relationships leading to further creative collaborations and ongoing partnerships. You can join the community for free if you are a creative literary, performing, or visual artist.

Liberated Muse Productions (2008-2010) produced the annual Capital Hip Hop Soul Fest held in Washington DC’s Marvin Gaye Park for three years and after the dissolution of Liberated Muse Productions, Liberated Muse Arts Group became the new name of the umbrella of services in 2011, producing events and theatrical productions throughout the Washington DC metro area.

The Liberated Muse brand has produced and co-sponsored dozens of events since 2008, including:

The aim of Liberated Muse Arts Group is to continuously challenge the notion of an “arts space” by programming in spaces that are not traditionally considered popular art spaces while continuing to use traditional spaces as a balance. We wholeheartedly support artist-owned and community-based venues that connects arts programming to populations that typically don’t have access to professional, high-quality artistry. Past locations for programming have included:

Marvin Gaye Park (Washington DC)

The Potter’s House (Washington DC)

The Bonifant Theater (Silver Spring, MD)

Martin Luther King Public Library (Washington DC)

Oxon Hill Public Library (Oxon Hill, MD)

Little Black Pearl (Chicago, IL)

The Artomatic (Washington, DC)

ArtSpring (Silver Spring, MD)

Capitol North Neighborhood Library (Washington, DC)

The United States Peace Corps headquarters (Washington, DC)

The Corner Store (Washington, DC)

Annie’s Art Gallery (Camp Springs, MD)
