Night of the Arts

-

Night of the Arts is a show put together once a month to showcase local artists whether it be art, music, fashion or spoken word. This night took place at the Record Bar downtown.  Simeon Taylor is one who organizes the Night of the arts and many shows in Kansas City, Missouri. The next show this month is Soul Session at the Blue Room on June 17th.


When I arrived I really liked seeing how many people came out to support local artists.  The first musician that I saw that night was Mae C who sang a few of her own songs from her new record Anxious that is on iTunes, which everyone should check out. You can really tell that she puts everything into her music.  SweeTwist was next with a very beautiful voice who has done some collaboration with a few other local musicians.  Warren Stylez Harvey is an amazing artist.  I went upstairs to see some of his art while waiting for the last show of the night.  His median is Acrylic and all of his art is very affordable as well.

The last show of the night was a supersize great mash up between Jo Blaq, Lee Langston, and Church Boi.  They separately do shows around Kansas City and outside as well, got together at the end to really close the show out right!  I really like that shows like Night of the Arts and many more support local artists and let them really show off their talent. So be sure to watch the sneak peek video of Night of the Arts and make sure to see where you can catch the next show or ones like it in the metro area.

So these next five days seemed harder than I thought they would be. I started having less time to make a full breakfast so I started the smoothie era. Tried cooking my own spaghetti, which didn't turn out the way I would have hoped. Saw a little moment of me editing and putting up the first of Self Health September videos and blog post. Still working out at home either in the morning or after work, which I was working towards doing different workouts.

Solar Eclipse Path of Totality 2017

Last Monday I got to witness being in the Path of Totality Solar Eclipse. This might be the only one I will see in my lifetime and some people go their whole life never seeing one, so I felt very lucky and wanted to share it with the rest of the world. Not the best shot of it but it is my experience. I sadly had to work this day, so I was not able to go to one of the many Solar Eclipse Events happening around town. Being in Kansas City made it a little bit harder to see it in its full beauty. So amazed by the amount of people who stop everything they were doing to watch this Eclipse.

Fall is finally here and that means apple cider, camp fires, pumpkins, and festivals. This past month we went to one of our favorites, the Chick Event . This year it took place at Johnson Farms in Belton, Missouri; they are also a pumpkin and garden center. Chick Event is a pop-up market of vintage and handmade items based out of our neighboring state, Leawood, Kansas. They do many events throughout the year throughout Kansas and Missouri. We like going to their events to get great deals from local artists and not only that but you also support local artists.
