Virtual Event

On Jan 17th from 8pm to 9:15pm Eastern Standard Time, Meek Earth&nbsp;Studio in partnership with <a href="https://www.stepdc.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">STEP&nbsp;DC(Their Website)</a> will raise funds to feed our neighbors--families in the Deanwood area through your concert ticket.&nbsp;100% of the base ticket goes to providing meals to families in a food desert in our nation's capital.&nbsp;Deanwood is a historically black neighborhood in Ward 7, and this intimate concert directly supports them.&nbsp;You get an amazing night of music. Families get multiple meals, and you get to see exactly how it happened post-concert.
<a href="https://www.zeponicfarms.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Zeponic Farm(Their Website</a>)&nbsp;and members of their day program will help us deliver the food to a food bank in Ward 7, <a href="https://www.hughesmemorial.org/ministries.aspx" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Hughes Memorial United Methodist Church's Food Pantry(Their Website).</a>&nbsp;Zeponic Farms employs adults with special needs, and we will purchase as much of their fresh kale as we can.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.findhelp.org/hughes-memorial-united-methodist--washington-dc--food-pantry/5092495626141696?postal=20019" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Hughes Memorial UMC's Food Pantry(Their Website)</a>, under their Missions Ministry, gives away free groceries on the last Saturday of each month from 11:00 am - 1:00 pm. No sign up is required for their patrons.&nbsp;We have coordinated with them to find out what food their patrons prefer and what they are running low on, so we can supplement their ministry for those in need.
This is an exclusive, live-streamed concert event featuring the pianist and composer, <a href="https://www.musicjoystudio.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Grace J. Reid (Her Website)</a>&nbsp;and the vocalist/dancer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/fromsuna/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Suna(Her Instagram).</a>&nbsp;
Grace Reid is an accomplished composer and classically trained pianist. Her body of original compositions include a series of songs dedicated to <a href="https://www.aoc.gov/explore-capitol-campus/art/vinnie-ream" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Vinnie Ream</a>, a teenager the white house commissioned to sculpt Abraham Lincoln.&nbsp; Grace performed her composition at the Lincoln Bicentennial, a concert sponsored by the <a href="https://www.nlapw.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">National League of American Pen Women</a>. Vinnie and Grace are both members of this historic organization of women artists, writers, and creatives. Grace makes the piano talk, speak to you.
