TESTIMONIALS

The class visit we received from Juliana Smith was a perfect blend of strong media analysis, critique and demonstration of "be about it" art...I highly recommend Ms. Smith as a guest speaker and that her work be incorporated into any number of courses related to media, history, art, etc.

DR. JARED A. BALL, Associate Professor of Communication Studies at Morgan State University.

This workshop was a wonderful part of our workshop series because it allowed exploration into telling stories through illustration.  The exercises Jewels’ used allowed our youth to be comfortable with drawing and interpreting others drawings.
