MEEt tHE ARtiSt

On June 1, Howard Hanna Real Estate Services and Stone Quarry Hill Art Park introduced local community members to playwright, scholar, and interdisciplinary artist Dr. Juhanna Rogers during the first installment of the “Meet the Artist Series” at The Pewter Spoon Café. the series provides an opportunity for the community to meet the visiting artists that reside and create work at the Art Park. As a 2021/2022 visiting artist, Rogers wrote and performed several seminal works at the park, including “Queendom,” a play in which she imagines a world where enslaved peoples are granted resources and funds to help establish lives in America, post-slavery. During the June 1 event, attendees enjoyed complimentary food and beverages prepared by the Pewter Spoon, and Rogers described her experience at the Art Park and read some of her work, including selections from “Queendom” and “Shattering.” learn more about Rogers at juhannarogers.com.
