The Columbia Festival of the Arts

The Chernoff's hosted a gathering of supporters and participants of The Columbia Fesitval of the Arts.
Click on the title to see whats coming up in spring.
My role is to help with media production to promote the event.




One thing is certain about our dear town of Columbia. We have ARTS!
Theatre, dance, music and visual arts abound in this town!
A big thanks goes to Marvin Chernoff because for over 20 years his commitment and passion for making sure there is excitement and support for the arts in Columbia has never waned.
It became clear in my very early years working with him at Chernoff/Silver how essential the arts and community service are to the well being of any community. Pro Bono work took up a lot of our time - cause we loved it. It fed us.
We loved incorporating the arts into other client projects as well. Music, dance, comedy and visual arts were frequently found in the work we produced. One of my first assignments with Chernoff was as production assistant for a musical we produced for SCANA at an employee retreat. Yep. SCANA Corporation.


The Columbia Festival of the Arts is sort of a trip down memory lane for those of us who grew up with Chernoff/Silver in the 80s. Things were just gettin hoppin then and we were right in the thick of it.
As I looked around the recent gathering of supporters and participants at the Chernoff's I was happy to see so many familiar faces and sooo many new ones as well!
Things are getting cranked up again!
