B7UE LOTUS MEDIA

Ahmad Inkandesigns (Gallery 37 Artist and one of our founders of B7UE) stepped outside to enjoy the weather and do a little spray painting… ended up with a whole audience 😂

A few neighborhood kids spotted him creating, came over curious, and got to talking. Next thing you know, they wanted to come inside and check out the artwork, too!

No event planned. Just some good weather, a little paint, and curiosity bringing people together. Love seeing the kids get excited about art. 🖤🪷

Some artists don’t need to be in front of the camera—their art is what they see through it.

If you notice angles other people miss, know when the lighting feels right, or can picture the shot before anybody presses record, the Youth Media Team may be for you.

This is for the young creatives who would rather operate the camera, capture sound, conduct interviews, edit footage, and help shape the final production. You don’t have to be outgoing or comfortable on camera. You just need an eye, a vision, and the willingness to learn.

🎥 15 spots available
🎬 Ages 13–18
📍 Decatur, Illinois
💻 No experience required

Led by Youth Media Program Coordinator Travonn.

Message us “YMT” if interested, or email [email protected] for an application.

🎨 WE’RE LOOKING FOR 15 YOUNG ARTISTS IN DECATUR!

B7UE Lotus Media is opening 15 spots for our 8-Week Healing Arts Program, led by Decatur artist Antonio Burton —also known as Toni Picasso of ALB Artwork.

Antonio’s work can be seen throughout the community, including his newest Advocate mural at Webster-Cantrell Youth Advocacy. His art celebrates community, connection and what it means to use your voice so others feel seen, heard and supported.

Now, 15 young artists will have the opportunity to work directly with him—completing creative projects, sharpening their skills and learning how art can turn real experiences into something powerful.

You don’t have to be a finished artist. Bring your creativity, your story and your willingness to grow.

Participation is fully covered. Only 15 spots are available.

DM us “HEALING ARTS” for details.
