September went by so fast! It was a whirlwind month with lots of exciting art activities. However, the most interesting event was the Gulf Coast Film Festival. My interview entitled, "What's in a Door?", made for the Dominion Films show, Getting the Edge, was chosen as a finalist in the film festival.
Throughout the weekend finalist films were shown at various locations in the Gulf Coast area. During the airing of "What's in a Door?" I was on hand with Producer/Director Abiiba Howell to answer questions and share information about the What's in a Door project. The weekend event also featured a banquet with awards and presentations. For that part of the event, I wore my red carpet jacket and got signatures from many of the distinguished guests present.
In addition, I got to meet actress Marsha Mason who was the major honoree for the year. My film didn't win but it got a lot of notice and generated lots of interest in the What's in a Door project. You can find out more about "What's in a Door?" by visiting my current and upcoming events at Project Row Houses and the Houston Museum of African American Culture. Look for more information to be posted in my next blog posts.
