Mixed Remixed Festival & Book #2

 

Dear (Contact First Name),  

Hello Again!  


      I've been working on a couple of projects intensely these last few months and I'm excited to see the work starting to pay off! 

Mixed Remixed Festival 2014
Mixed Remixed logo
      Mixed Remixed is an exciting new media and arts festival celebrating racial and cultural connectedness and the Mixed experience which will be held June 14, 2014 at the Japanese American National Museum in downtown Los Angeles.

      
Mixed Remixed brings together film and book lovers, innovative and emerging artists, and multiracial families and individuals for workshops, readings, film screenings and live performance including music, comedy and spoken word.

As a founder of the original multiracial/multicultural film and book festival that showcased many talented filmmakers, writers, and performers (including Key & Peele, Rebecca Walker, Kip Fulbeck, Danzy Senna, Carleen Brice, Kim Wayans & Kevin Knotts, Angela Nissel, Neil Aitken, Mat Johnson, Faith Adiele, Sundee Frazier, and Karyn Parsons), I'm excited about this project which promises to be even bigger and better and will also highlight playwrights, visual artists, and multidiscliplinary artists! 
An Artist Colony Retreat
     I get messages from time to time asking me when I plan to publish book #2.  And then I have to admit sheepishly that first I have to finish it!  But I promise you that I am finally making good progress these days --especially during my recent residency at the Djerassi Resident Arts Program in northern California.

     In the beautiful mountains which overlook the Pacific Ocean on a clear day (and gloriously eery fog on other days), I re-discovered my muse and spent four happy weeks inside the mind of the woman who inspired my character, Miss Lala.   You can see the photos that graced my studio wall and that sparked my imagination in the short video I've included here.  Or read more on my website here.

    I hope this finds you doing well!  And Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Warmest wishes,
Heidi
