SPOKEN WORD
ARTIST SUBCON SAVANT CLICK LINK: Peace Hop Movement: Week #10 – Spoken Word – is a movement that calls out to the peaceful warriors of our generation. It is a calling to remember who, and more importantly, what we are. It is a war-cry to the light workers of our current generation to see ourselves as the Eternally Divine Spirit that we are. To remember that Mother Earth comes from the same Source that we all come from. It is up to us to heal each other; to lead the youth; and to examine all of the thoughts we have assumed to be true.

SONG & DANCE MAN – WEEK #6 – Dance & Theatre – Skip Cunningham’s life was a rare blend of brilliance and humility—an internationally celebrated tap master whose rhythm captivated audiences across the world, yet whose greatest impact was felt in the quiet, personal moments he shared with others. From his early beginnings in Chicago to stages, studios, cruise ships, and film sets around the globe, Skip built a legacy defined not only by extraordinary talent but by kindness, joy, and the way he made people feel. He performed with legends, taught generations of dancers, and carried a gentle spirit that touched every life he encountered.
