Purpose/Mission

 

The "7 Arts Summer Festival" was conceived as part of a vision to bring a multi-purpose Performing Arts Facility to Brooklyn, N.Y. Founder/Executive Director Jamel Wade credits the availability of arts education in his formulative years with preparing him for the life he would lead and the lengthy career he has had as a filmaker, playwright and actor. Having grown up in Fort Greene, Brooklyn in the late70's and early 80's with a father, Adam Wade, who was Americas First African-American game show host, Jamel was able to see firsthand what a combination of preparation, hard work and opportunity could achieve. "When I came up in school you could study music, art and could join a performance group for after school, nowadays you have to go to 3 separate places to do all of that. It's taxing on the kids and the parents who want to keep their children active in the performing arts. I would like to help change that. The "7 Arts Summer Festival" is hopefully a step in the right direction", ~ Jamel Wade
