‘U’ students start a
new local music fest

By DAYTON HARE

Daily Arts Writer

In the not too distant past,

it was sometimes maddeningly
difficult to gain access to art of
interest to you.
If you wanted
to hear a piece
of music, you
had to go to the
record
store

and hope they
had it. If you
wanted to read
a
somewhat

obscure book,
you had to visit
your local library and hope it
was somewhere in their system.
Visual art could be seen in gal-
leries or in picture books. But in
the present hyperconnected age,
when we’re all supersaturated
with various forms of media,
entertainment and art via the
Internet, we can find almost
anything we want with a few
clicks and keyboard commands
(indeed, the challenge today is
mostly sorting through the vast
quantity of information to deter-
mine what is worth our time).

While it’s excellent to have

such easy access to so much, one
of the regrettable side effects
of this situation is that we now
have a tendency to overlook the
work of local artists, having
removed the immediacy of being
local, one of their main advan-
tages. But it’s important to note
that by so doing we potentially
lose something extremely valu-
able — a sense of community.
A sense which is constructed

through the togetherness of
people enjoying the art of their
neighbors. All well-known art-
ists were once local. Without
the support of those around
them, the great artists of history
may have failed to achieve the
fame they ultimately possessed.
After all, The Beatles started as
a group of Liverpool teenagers
jamming together.

For all of those reasons, it’s

very exciting that this weekend
Ann Arbor will have an oppor-
tunity to consume a tremendous
quantity of local art, gathered
in a single place as part of the
Threads All Arts Festival.

“There’s a bunch of things

happening in Ann Arbor, there’s
a lot of people who come through
Ann Arbor, but there’s not a lot
of people who go to the shows of
the art that’s happening here,”
said Nicole Patrick, School of
Music, Theatre & Dance senior
and one of the founders of
Threads. “So we were kind of
like ‘Let’s make our own festi-
val, and see what happens.’ It
was kind of a joke at first, and
then we wrote a proposal, and
then it wasn’t a joke — no, mostly
a dream, not a joke.”

Patrick and her friend, School

of Music, Theatre & Dance
senior Samuel Schaefer, initially
had the idea to start an arts fes-
tival after attempting to gain
funding for another project of
theirs.

“Sam also works on a project

out of our house — we also live
together. We turned our attic
into a recording studio,” Pat-
rick said. “It’s called Stereo Par-
rot, and it’s a recording label …
they’ve released five to seven
albums since they started. We
wanted to get a few dollars for
that going.”

The pair submitted grant pro-

posals to the EXCEL Program
for three projects. The program
provides
entrepreneurship

training and career services for
University students within the
performing arts.

“We had that idea, kind of

came up with a grant proposal.
I took it into my drum teacher,
Michael Gould,” Patrick said.


“He was like ‘Yeah that’s great,
but you guys should just like,
apply for everything you ever
wanted to do. Don’t just write
one proposal.’ So we submitted
three: one for Stereo Parrot, one
for Threads and one for our band
Rooms.”

The application to get fund-

ing for Threads was ultimately
successful, and in the time since
the proposal, Patrick, Schaefer
and an additional four friends
who joined the project have
worked to bring a diverse array
of arts and artists to the event
— from the Balkan brass band
Rhyta Musik to contemporary
dancers. This year, Threads will
have over 50 performing artists
present, most of which are musi-
cians, with rock bands, original
classical compositions, jazz and

more.

“We kind of wanted to touch

on every genre that we got,”
Patrick said. “A few electronic
things too, and DJs as well, that
are also using projections and
stuff like that.”

Threads will incorporate far

more than just music however,
giving a platform to all sorts of
artists, such as modern dancers,
poets, film artists and visual art-
ists.

This diversity of art genres

and performances is reflected in
the name of the festival, Threads
All Arts, which Patrick said was
a name long in its conception.

“It came from one of the peo-

ple on the team — Karen Too-
masian, who’s an architect, just
graduated — she was standing in
the doorway, with her backpack
on,” Patrick said. “And — this is
how she says it — she was looking
at the rug that was on the floor,
and she was like, ‘Man, there’s
a lot of things that make up this
rug, and that’s cool because it’s a
pretty rug, and threads, there’s a
lot of threads on here. Guys we
should name it threads!’ And it
was finally the first name that
everyone didn’t totally hate, so
we had to keep it.”

The festival will be held on

Friday April 1 and Saturday
April 2 at the Yellow Barn, a
local performance space.

Threads is also partnering

with UMS to showcase some of
their local artists in residence,
who will be performing in the
festival.

“(UMS has) helped us a bunch,

really in term of promotion,”
Patrick said. “It’s really great.”

Patrick said he hopes that this

weekend’s festival can be the
first of many, emphasizing the
value of local art.

“We really believe that the

community will feel stronger
connections to the place that
they live if they are also aware
of the artists who live here,” Pat-
rick said. “The cool thing about
Ann Arbor is that it’s so small
that it’s like, your cashier is also
your friend, is also your neigh-
bor, is also this person who’s
been releasing albums that you
haven’t known about for 10
years. And we really want to be
sort of like a vessel for artists
trying to establish themselves
in this town … it’s pretty inspir-
ing, I think, to know that you’re
walking on the same sidewalk as
someone who has those feelings
and expresses themselves in that
way.”

EVENT PREVIEW
ASA to celebrate
African identity

Eighteenth annual
show fuses music,
dance, comedy,

fashion and stories

By MARIA ROBINS-SOMER-

VILLE

Daily Arts Writer

We were. We are. We will be.

These are the lines that both
divide and unite the theme
of this year’s
Annual
Afri-

can
Culture

show, an annu-
al
tradition

created by the
African
Stu-

dents Associa-
tion that fuses
music, dance,
comedy, fash-
ion and rich
storytelling
to explore the
roots of many
African
stu-

dents on cam-
pus.

LSA senior Lukonde Mulen-

ga, president of ASA joined
the club her freshman year in
hopes of connecting with other
African students in a way that
was unavailable to her in high
school.

“My parents are from Zam-

bia, and not many Zambians
immigrate from Zambia,” she
said. “So where we were living

the closest people from Zambia
to us were an hour away.”

LSA junior Seun Oladipo,

ASA’s social media chair, said
he hopes to ensure that the Cul-
ture Show includes a broad and
diverse representation of Afri-
ca’s 54 countries.

“We try and get a very

regional representation,” Ola-
dipo said. “The campus can
be very much West African-
based, so we try to span dif-
ferent regions within Africa. It
should be a really educational,
but really fun experience for
everyone.”

“I want to leave with ASA

knowing that they are repre-
senting the entirety of Africa
and not just one part,” Mulenga
added.

Historically, the African Cul-

ture Show has been lively and
well-loved and Oladipo said
she feels the pressure to exceed
expectations for this year’s per-
formance.

“I think one of my biggest

challenges this year is making
sure that people aren’t compla-
cent,” she said. “We did really
have a good show last year, and
I feel like some people came
into it thinking, ‘oh it’ll be
amazing,’ not really realizing
that there is a lot of work that
goes into making the show.”

About 60 people are involved

in producing Afrolution this
year. The group gets support
from their graduate chapter
and, has worked to bring in acts

from outside of the University
of Michigan community and
even from outside of the United
States to perform.

The fashion show, which fea-

tures students exclusively, is a
mainstay of the African Culture
show. The group holds open
auditions for models and com-
bines African-inspired fashions
with authentic clothing donat-
ed by students and their fami-
lies over the years.

“One place where the theme

is really apparent is in the fash-
ion show,” Oladipo said. “You
can see the progression of the
clothes, how it was pre-colonial
to how a lot of Africans are
dressing now to where you see
the fashion aesthetic going in
the future.”

She noted that with the show

in particular, attendees will
see some differences — though
they’ll have to wait until the
show to find out what they are.

“Something that we’ve been

trying to do differently is the
way the fashion show is struc-
tured,” Oladipo said. “In pre-
vious years it’d be sectioned
off by the tempo of the walk,
so we’d have a slow walk and a
medium walk and a fast walk,
and we kind of stuck with that
for a bunch of years.”

In combining history, pride,

music and identity, ASA links
generations to celebrate what it
means, has meant and will one
day mean to be part of a vibrant
African community.
