Angelique Poteat was selected as a 2015 CityArtist by the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture. The grant will support the creation of a new composition for orchestra with girls’ choir that addresses self-esteem and the influence of popular culture and peer-pressure on teen and pre-teen girls, as expressed by girls in the Seattle community.
This will culminate in a performance of the new work in November 2015 by the Seattle Collaborative Orchestra and the Northwest Girlchoir. Updates on the project will be posted periodically, so stay tuned!
