But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.’We all have genius within us. Yet knowing you have a genius within doesn't make picking up a guitar or a paintbrush any easier. On the contrary, if we believe that "art" is for "artists" only, we live only as an observer and dreamer. Each event, you'll hear how these artists found their way to let art into their lives. Unique stories of self-expression, we promise you’ll leave inspired to unleash your own genius!As usual, profits go back to the artists. Stay tuned to this FB event - where we’ll be featuring each poet, spoken word artist, musician, beatboxer, video artist, dancer, etc who will perform on July 29! As well, join us for our 13th edition, the Monday before this event, July 24th where Aishah Soraya, Fazil Mohamed, and one more featured act will share the stage with a talented group of open mic artists at Gaslight Music & Cafe.Lastly, I’d like to give a special thank you and shoutout to EVERY single person who has ever stepped on stage during this event, as well as ALL the supporters. For events with 20 in attendance or 60, thank you for your talents, your applause, your nerves, your bravery, your laughter, your support of others, your collaborations, your tears, your heart. When you take the step to unleash your genius, you live *that* much more each day, you give permission to others to unleash theirs, and the world only has so much more to gain.We hope to see you on July 29th! With so much love, Cynthia + the kind souls at Pulse Soundworks - Armon, Angelo, etc PS. Never withhold your genius ;)
