Redefinition: An Artistic Experience showcases some of the world-class artistry produced in the Gulf Coast region. Reginald Quinerly, the show's creator, co-producer, artistic director and full-time jazz musician, explained.

"The show's primary goal is to highlight the connection between our surroundings and the experiences that have shaped each performers artistic expression. This is basically a continuation of the performance tradition that has always been integral to our culture. I've always been impressive to meet people who leave our event with a totally new perspective and appreciation of what art provides to daily life. This city deserves great art, period!"

This event showcases the idea that all artists are modern day storytellers, the producer, Reginald Quinerly, explained.

"Their form, content and context may vary, but each participant uses his or her medium(s) to narrate personal experiences. The audience has a chance to witness and even take part in each story as it unfolds."
