Featured in the Express Newark's "Blues People" exhibition, Derrick Adams's “The Holdout II” is a social sculpture with a house-like structure and the format of a pirate radio station. With Sister From Another Planet (Andrea Rose Clarke, SFAP) as its host, “The Holdout II” welcomes creatives and cultural practitioners to engage in conversation about gentrification, economic development, and land ownership in Newark and beyond, set to the curated sounds of SFAP.
On Saturday, June 29th, Will Calhoun, the legendary drummer from the rock band, "Living Colour," will offer a groundbreaking and transformative drumming workshop. During his live performance, Calhoun's photography and digital Afro-futuristic images will be projected. Each event is free to the public, and refreshments will be served.
WBGO's Sheila Anderson spoke with Will Calhoun about the special event at Express Newark and the beginnings of "Living Colour."
