DESCRIPTION:TRANSFORMATIVE VISIONS\n\n"An explosion of love, set to jazz!" \n\nThat’s 
 the way one person described this dynamic event. For the fifth year, 
 Oakland-based nonprofit, OneLife Institute, will present Transformative 
 Visions, a multimedia art show and spoken word/jazz concert with a message 
 of peace, justice, healing, and possibility.\n\nThe event uses the arts to 
 address issues like violence, poverty, racism, and the environment, but 
 instead of simply describing the problems, seeks to provide a vision of 
 hope beyond the current conditions. It is intended to both challenge and 
 inspire, offering a spiritually-rooted response to the critical concerns of 
 the present day.\n\nTransformative Visions centers on the power of the arts 
 to heal, activate, and build community. Scheduled to coincide with the 
 annual observance of A Season for Nonviolence, Transformative Visions will 
 take place on Saturday, March 16th from 2:00PM – 5:00PM at the Studio One 
 Art Center, 365 - 45th St., in Oakland.\nWe are excited to present jazz 
 all-stars, the Destiny Muhammad Project (Destiny Muhammad on harp and 
 vocals, Fred Harris on piano, E.W. Wainwright on drums, Gary Brown on 
 upright bass) with special guests, pianist Tammy Hall, and Sistahs of the 
 Drum.\n\nSpoken word artists will perform original works with a message of 
 positive social change:  * Ambessa the Articulate * Freedom Reign *  Itoro 
 Udofia * LEX * Nakia "Precious Gift" Dillard * Sandra Hooper Mayfield * 
 Telejon Quinn. \n\nThe visual art exhibit will be on display from March 9th 
 through the week of April 8th. More than 20 Bay Area artists, working in a 
 wide range of styles and media, are participating. They include:  * Abba 
 Yahudah * Alonzo Young *  April Martin Chartrand * Brett Cook *  Bryan 
 Keith Thomas *  Damon Powell *  Daniel Zarazua *  Eesuu Orundide *  George 
 Hopkins *  James Gayles *  Kris Washington-Carroll *  Lorraine Bonner * 
 Malik Seneferu * Mildred Thompson * Nia Jourdan  * Pablo Soto Campoamor * 
 Ras Terms * Safetyfirst * Salma Arastu * TaSin Sabir * Wanda Sabir *
