Kids At Play – Jacksonville, FL

Brasher Media road trip!
 
We had the awesome opportunity to work with Kids At Play in Jacksonville Beach, Florida! Right before Thanksgiving, we packed up our gear, and our pup, and began our adventure.
 
Kids At Play is a unique organization focusing on a child-led approach to learning, giving special attention to each child’s individual journey of experiencing the world. The program is available to children ages 6 weeks old up to 4 years old, and offers a variety of opportunities for outdoor play, and engaging and interactive learning to facilitate whole-child development.
 

Show Time

 
Our shoot was scheduled to coincide with the Praise Friday session, where classes are brought outdoors to allow the kids to move freely from station to station and experience different activities. On this particular Friday morning, while a bit chilly, the sun was shining with a slight breeze, making for an excellent day to get outdoors, get some fresh air, and to of course PLAY!
 
We had a blast capturing moments from the class. Plus, it was fun getting to interact with the kids and see all their smiling faces as they went about, enjoying their morning.
 

Final Bits

 
While Kids At Play doesn’t have locations in Georgia, this organization is worth checking out if you know anyone in the Jacksonville Beach, Florida area that has kids and is looking for a program to get them enrolled in.

The Blackout Show with Wix Patton

In case you didn’t know, Saturday, October 15, 2022, was UGA’s homecoming game (Go Dawgs)! This wasn’t any old homecoming game though, no. This weekend was special because it marked the 100th homecoming anniversary. As fate would have it, the dawgs met Vandy between the hedges, coming out victorious in a 55-0 blowout game.
 
With a million different options available to continue celebrating into the evening, we were happy to cover the Blackout Show with Wix Patton at The Warehouse!

Now Is The Time: Vinyl Release Party

We were super stoked to cover ATHfactor-Liberty Entertainment’s vinyl release party for Now is the Time: Shouting Fire in a Crowed Theater out at Creature Comforts on Friday, October 14, 2022.  While supplies lasted, attendees were able to receive a free vinyl copy of the album and listen to the album’s tracks being performed live by the featured artists, including:
 
 
Not everyone on the album was able to perform live this particular evening; however, those who did perform were amazing and it was a really great night to connect with all the artists in-person. Between all the performances, Montu as Emcee, and DJ Chiefrocka on the decks, it was an epic night of hip-hop!
 
Presented by ATHfactor-Liberty Entertainment with University of Georgia’s Wilson Center for Humanities and Arts, this Athens-centric project showcases eight songs with 12 local hip-hop artists, two local poets, and a handful of local producers. The project’s aim is to present the listener with modern-day protest music to raise awareness around issues plaguing America and to help act as a catalyst for change.
