chrysler museum juneteenth cookout (Copy)
This past Saturday at Aslin Beer Co. on the oceanfront (Va Beach) the creative community came together for an unforgettable evening of art, music, and connection. Envision Volume 2 brought out an eclectic collection of DJs, performing artists, vendors, and community groups for a night that truly highlighted the depth of talent and culture in the 757.
The event wasn’t just about good vibes—it carried purpose. Hosted in partnership with Leaders of Tomorrow Youth Center (LTYC), the gathering aimed to expand awareness of the nonprofit’s mission: providing creative arts education to youth across Maryland, DC, and Virginia.
In addition, we’d love to note the importance and impact of having organizations such as ltyc. arts organizations play a vital role in strengthening the creative economy. By employing independent contractors—musicians, designers, performers, visual artists, and more—they not only provide income opportunities but also help sustain artistic careers. These organizations create platforms where talent can be showcased, networks can grow, and creativity can directly enrich the cultural life of the community.
From tastemakers and creatives to community members and the general public, the turnout reflected the diversity and strength of the local arts ecosystem. The night fostered meaningful connections between artists, entrepreneurs, and community organizations, planting seeds for collaborations that will carry forward well beyond the evening.
We’re proud of the success of this event and are excited about the opportunities it has sparked. This is only the beginning—more creativity, connection, and community are on the horizon. huge shout out to everyone involved and all who made this activation a possiblity.
