HAVE A DOPE DAY WE ARE SACRAMENTO MEDIA

My favorite people to talk to are the ones that “make it happen “ regardless of fear and what challenges and obstacles are ahead of them . Kayla Cruz is just that type of person I say that because In the middle of a successful career in real estate and design she decides to follow her heart’s passion for art by quitting her job one day and going all in on HERSELF the next day as a full time professional artist . If that’s not following passion idk what is since then she has continued to thrive through art all on her own by committing herself to commissions and growing her skill base. This episode is her story in her own words.

The best part about being a writer from the street and curator in a gallery is the network I have to choose from. When I challenge graff writers to make gallery quality work and they deliver it’s a different kind of special. DYOS is a prime example of that already a dope and talented artist but to see the gallery work he produced is amazing. No lie I’m a bit jealous lol this is DYOS story in his own words

my favorite thing about this podcast is the people I talk to . The story of who they are and what they do . Sometimes I get a similar story from two different people . When that happens I try my best to get them in the same room and see if they are willing to work together.This is exactly what happened with Celina & Alexi not only did they know of one another they were fans of one another. Hanging art in the same room quickly lead to conversation about an installation and five days later it was all a reality . You will have to show up to the opening of -ARTIST MAKE THE CITY- January 20th 4-9 pm at the gallery by we are Sacramento to see exactly what I’m talking about!

Special people have always been a result of the graff game in Sacramento California but once in a while you meet someone that is truly extraordinarily special. The story of friendship and fellowship is a big part of Joshua’s story in this first episode with me hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did .

It’s so dope to sit down and have a conversation with other podcasts host that I’m a fan of and get the behind the scenes story of how their podcast started. Sheilah and sierra started the blue blocks podcast to highlight the businesses and special people on the Del Paso Blvd . I personally know how rewarding and challenging it is to highlight people from our community and maintain a high quality podcast and juggle all the regular life stuff and because of that I wanted to give them their flowers on air and remind them that the work they do has value.

Ever since I was a young warthog I would see “Aztec dancers “ and b amazed by the regalia and the collective movement to the beat of a live drum . In this episode Natalia breaks down the purpose and a bit of history on the ceremony and brings us up to date with her involvement in the Washington center.
