This summer, PPI will participate in the inaugural Millennium Park Residency Program (MPRP), joining three other highly respected cultural organizations.Ending Soon: Funding and Grants For Black Women and Families

The program, organized by the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events (DCASE), offers resources and a platform for select organizations to showcase their work during Millennium Park’s vibrant summer season. On June 4th, PPI is scheduled to captivate a sold-out audience with their unique fusion of dance and storytelling on the iconic Jay Pritzker Pavilion stage.

Under the guidance of an esteemed Black female leadership team, PPI is dedicated to giving voice to the stories and experiences of Black artists through their work. By maintaining strong connections to the community and fostering social consciousness, PPI’s influence extends beyond the stage, inspiring future generations of artists and change-makers. The organization has consistently provided high-quality performances that rival those of non-minority-led dance companies. The company’s dedication to their craft has resulted in outstanding success and recognition, both at the local and national levels.

“We at PPI feel incredibly privileged to be part of the first-ever Millennium Park Residency cohort. Being a Black-led organization hailing from the South Side of Chicago, we can’t help but feel that this is a truly special chance for our city and the world to see the amazing talent that our community has to offer. Our hearts are deeply committed to working towards giving a voice, platform, and opportunities to professional artists of color, and we couldn’t be more excited about this journey,” says Ennerèssa.

Inaugural Millenium Park Residency recipient Praize Productions, Inc. led by its CEO/Founder Ennerèssa LaNette will produce a one-of-a-kind photography installation entitled “The Rhythm Within Our Blues” in tandem with this year’s Blues Festival. This unique artistic development will incorporate life size photographs that depict the history and authentic culture of Blues music told via the lense of professional photographers of color from Chicago’s South Side.

A Street in Bronzeville - Gwendolyn Brooks - 1945

To say that all Gwendolyn Brooks deserves is a posthumous Nobel Prize is an understatement. I find it remarkably sinister that she isn't talked about more. Her poems move through transition, she sometimes uses rhyme, sometimes free verse, sometimes writing with little punctuation. All of it is perfectly intentional. Brooks was interested in the lives of the people around her. In her community. At a time when Robert Frost and similar poets ventured off into the woods to 'discover' something, Brooks was right there, in Bronzeville, eye to the world around her. The book is, in some ways, a catalogue, moving through moments of joy and grief, always wth the goal of just understanding someone better. Brooks wanted to understand the people around her. It is crazy that such a goal isn't more present in poetry. Brooks understood the world around her. Terrance Hayes, in Watch Your Language, asks 'If you don't turn your suffering into art, will it remain suffering?' I imagine Brooks responding 'If you don't turn your joy into art, will it remain joy?'
