Heart Behind The Art

Harmony in Artistry: A Creative Friendship Odyssey in Filmmaking, Music, Modeling, DJ-ing, Animation, and Illustration

ABOUT HEART BEHIND THE ART
It all started with an idea, and it catalyzed with enthusiasm. The Root is a place for inclusion, collaboration, and innovation. It’s where locals are celebrated and stories are heard. Heart Behind The Art, held at The Root, is art in all aspects – from visual to culinary and everything in between. Volume XII is about the synergy and inspiration created by a group of friends who happen to live together. Though they work well together, this group has individual talents in music, animation, modeling, filmmaking, and more! Not only is this a way for visitors to experience local art and culture, but it gives the artists a platform to share the reason for creating their art in the first place.

Food provided by The Wizard of Art!
