Virtual Artist Salon: Ann Eskridge, Jeni De La O and Rochelle Marrett

We invite you to join us in this virtual gathering space for discovery, dialogue, and the exchange of ideas.

This unique series focuses on the 2021 Kresge Artist Fellows and Gilda Awardees, featuring literary artists Ann Eskridge, Jeni De La O and Rochelle Marrett. A presentation about their practices will be followed by a Q&A-based conversation moderated by Orlando P. Bailey, an Emmy Award-winning journalist with BridgeDetroit, former deputy director for Eastside Community Network in Detroit, co-host of the Authentically Detroit podcast, and host at Detroit’s Urban Consulate.

This program is a collaboration between Kresge Arts in Detroit and WDET and is part of Kresge Arts in Detroit’s mission to advance and showcase the work of Kresge Artist Fellows and Gilda Awardees, provide space for growth and discovery, and further the connection between Kresge artists and the wider arts community.
