“Polyphonic Culture” with Norfolk, VA local, Patrick Mullins in the lead as Creative Facilitator has been gathering at the Historic Attucks Theatre in Norfolk, VA over the last few months to connect, break bread, and program collaboratively. Our time together has resulted in the programming of 8 FREE performances planned in 2024 at the Attucks Theatre.
Our 1st event “Now & Then Again” was a collaboration by Studio 360 & The Boys Choir of Hampton Roads, May 19, 5-7pm. All were invited to enjoy an evening of song & dance to celebrate the artistry of today, inspired by the grandeur of the past. Nearly 300 gathered at the event.

Norfolk Arts and our grantees, embrace the goals of diversity, equity, and inclusion, knowing that the arts can be the perfect catalyst for understanding and celebrating cultural differences. “Polyphonic Culture” is a simultaneous combination of voices using the arts to create genuine inclusion.
“The National Endowment for the Arts is pleased to support a wide range of projects, demonstrating the many ways the arts enrich our lives and contribute to healthy and thriving communities,” said NEA Chair Maria Rosario Jackson, PhD. “These organizations play an important role in advancing the creative vitality of our nation and helping to ensure that all people can benefit from arts, culture, and design.”
Norfolk Arts is a proud recipient of a $20,000 National Endowment for the Arts Grant that has supported this series of interactive seminars for the arts and culture sector that included current and former Norfolk Arts grantees + other invited cultural organizations.
