Founders ChiChi Anyanwu, CHI Talent Management and Ezra Ezzard, ARTIFICATION hosted a Magical Afternoon Picnic at Riverbank Park.
Beautiful People,
I had not attended any public events since March 7th 2020 due to COVID so when I received an invitation that said All Guests Must Vaccinated, I was overjoyed because I Am Fully Vaccinated.
Lets take a step back to one year ago at the height of the Pandemic, ChiChi decided it was time to dive into the waters of entrepreneurship.
As one of her coaches, we had discussed her passion, her gifts and goals. I knew she had big dreams and wanted to form a company where she could respectfully encourage, nurture and support a diverse group of compassionate, responsible artists. She was ready.
Ezra is a good friend of ChiChi's. In 2017 he founded ARTIFICATION a film and production company.
These brilliant, compassionate creatives share a similar philosophy and are creating business models of integrity and respect. They are dedicated and require that those around them be dedicated and work hard.
That said, what began as a cloud Saturday morning ultimately bursted into an afternoon full of sunshine, good vibes and unbridled joy.
There were elders, boomers, millennials, teens and babies.
Mystical conversations, magical business connections and a multitude of people flowed in and out.
I was happy to see Ezra's friends, celebrated dancers and choreographers Hope Boykin and Matthew Rushing both Ailey alums. Hope has now retired and is choreographing for BALLET X and PHILADANCO. Matthew is now assistant artistic director at Alvin Ailey.
I enjoyed meeting Teresa Eyring executive director of Theater Communications Group, Jean Floradin, Alaina Kai Chester Joshua Echebiri, Kwame and so many others. I was grateful to see my longtime young friends Mcheal A. Jones, Carter Redwood and Jrome Andre.
Family Represents! Just ask award winning playwright sister, Ngozichukwuka Anyanwu, aunts, uncles, a brother, a host cousins and yes Parents who came from Philadelphia. Though much of the food was catered, Queen Mother Anyanwu arrived with a huge selection of Nigerian dishes to be devoured!
And if you want to fine tune your craft, make sure you read #ThePowerOfVoice by Denise Woods.
ChiChi Anyanwu Jrome Andre and I are All All Inspired by this must have book that coaches and helps you to be Heard and Seen as You Become Your Truly Great Self!
Chi Chi and Ezra, Great Party! Thanks for Including Me!
Happy One Year Anniversary CHI Talent Management!
Moving Forward Lets Breathe with Healing, Hope & Joy!
Always, Melony 👑💖👑
