Love Our Island Art Walk: Radical Beauty

Radical Beauty is the theme for the Rhythmix Love Our Island Art Walk Series – a two-year art-centric, creative placemaking project that features a diverse range of free public art events. Showcasing art installations in empty storefront windows, with free live music and dance performances presented on city streets, the project seeks to activate Alameda’s historic downtown and commercial districts. Love Our Island Art Walks are supported by the California Arts Council and the City of Alameda, and the Downtown Alameda Business Association. The Love Our Island Art Walk Series seeks to elevate Alameda as a destination for the arts and engage locals and visitors to the island as part of that experience on select 2nd Fridays through May 2019.

ISLAND ARTS

Since 2010, Rhythmix has produced an Island Arts Concert and Workshop series, bringing the music and culture of islands around the world (Cuba, Japan, Puerto Rico, Tahiti, Indonesia, Hawaii and the U.S.) to the island of Alameda. In 2012, Rhythmix received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to broaden and deepen the scope of its Island Arts Program. The grant enabled Rhythmix to partner with the Alameda Boys and Girls Club (ABGC) and Girls Inc. of the Island City (Girls Inc). Artists who were part of the Island Arts Festival were subsidized to teach free workshops at the two facilities, and youth plus family members from these two organizations were given the opportunity to attend and join in the evening performances of the artists at no cost as well.

PAL ASSEMBLIES

Rhythmix Cultural Works believes that exposure to the arts can be a transformative experience and a catalyst for cultural celebration. In support of this vision, Rhythmix developed PAL as an assembly-based youth arts education program in collaboration with the Alameda Unified School District. Through exposure to educational music and dance performances, PAL fosters awareness of world cultures and empowers underserved youth, stimulating a sense of pride in students’ cultural heritage and deepening connections to their communities. PAL assemblies serve as a catalyst for arts learning and a springboard for integrating arts education in the classroom.
