Spread the word and come hear about local artists and activists who are creating the Atlanta that THEY want to see!#CreATL LiFT! RSVP on Facebook! Musical Performance: ASH. From Capitol Hill to the main stage, ASH. left her public sector job behind to truly share her voice with the world; having toured for the last four years with award-winning singer-songwriter, Janelle Monae, and shared the stage with some of today's most celebrated music superstars. Now the Cleveland native who resides in Atlanta is exploring her solo career as an artist. ASH.'s bubbly debut "Perfect" is her introduction to the alternative-pop world. The simple production and vocals beautifully accent the song's light-hearted message about her experiences with love.

For LiFT, she will share with us her work with the medium of glass. Each piece starts with an original image transferred to a permanent moment kiln fired onto glass. Using tinted and opaque glass colorways, Marselle creates a glimpse of her own family at various times in life. Her goal is to celebrate and remember the roots which have given her the foundation to love, grow, laugh and honor members of her own family. http://friendsofsmyrnalibrary.blogspot.com/2013/11/jewelry-fused-glass-art-exhibit-by.html Social Action: Human Capital Theory Human Capital Theory is a new nonprofit organization making buzz around Atlanta.
