Event Description

About the Event

In this online series, women musicians perform original work via live-stream on the museum’s social media channels on the first Friday of the month. Each session includes a short interview, conducted over a cup of tea, which explores the artist’s creative process. The Tea proudly welcomes Prowess the Testament this month and will be live streaming on NMWA’s Facebook page and at nmwa.org/livestream.

Prowess’ artistic and diplomatic roots cultivated her natural gift as a performer in the indie hip hop scene. KRS-One gifted Prowess with her moniker following a standout performance during a Hip Hop Appreciation Week event. Since 2014, she has been forging a path all her own while creating a number of artistic works that reflect her unique vibe—an unsuspecting and compassionate demeanor that produces a raw yet melodic sound.

The Tea is presented by the museum’s Women, Arts, and Social Change public program initiative.

Event Sponsors

The Women, Arts, and Social Change public programs initiative is made possible through leadership gifts from Denise Littlefield Sobel, the Davis/Dauray Family Fund, the Revada Foundation of the Logan Family, and the Susan and Jim Swartz Public Programs Fund. Additional funding is provided by the Bernstein Family Foundation.
