Explore the multifaceted world of JJJJJerome Ellis. This Grenadian-Jamaican-American artist uses music, performance, writing, video, and photography, to create contemplative soundscapes and music-video-poems.  His work probes the intersections of stuttering, justice, blackness, disabled speech, and divinity. 

Ellis's work has earned global acclaim, including a Fulbright Fellowship. Discover the transformative power of Ellis's artistry, where every performance becomes a unique exploration of silence, sound, and the richness of human experience.

Like all DFS programs, this hour-long student matinee performance is free for schools to attend, though we do ask that schools make their own transportation arrangements.  If that means you might not be able to attend, let us know.  We may be able to help.  Our Perloff Memorial Bus Fund provides support for bus transportation. We often have more demand that we can accommodate; requests are filled on a first-come basis. Contact us at dfs@cap.ucla.edu for more information.
