It was an honor to experience Lamar Manson in this lifetime, let alone have the honor to work so closely with him. We are heartbroken to learn of his sudden transition. Black Ice was more than an artist in our community, he was our brother. He was a living archive, a truth-teller, and a pillar of what it means to carry poetry with integrity.

We send our love and condolences to his family, friends, the poetry community and all who loved and have been inspired by him.

May he rest in poetry.

Movement as medicine. Boundaries as power.

Yesterday, led Your Body, Your Boundaries: A Movement Workshop for Penn Medicine’s Ambassador Training at St. Joseph’s University and transformed the room.

What began as a training quickly became a full-body experience. She had health professionals out of their seats, in the aisles, releasing tension, reconnecting to themselves, and practicing tools they can carry into both their work and their homes.

Participants shared that they felt empowered, uplifted, and seen. And that’s the magic Solise brings. Her bubbly, authentic presence creates space for people to soften, open, and return to themselves.

We’re grateful to Penn Medicine for the invitation, and a special thank you to and Dr. Rhim ( ) for your trust and partnership.

This is what we do at Speak to My Soul, we book artists who curate experiences that move people, literally and spiritually.

Booking available. Let’s bring into your organization. ✨

This past weekend, five Soul Tribe artists helped shape the grand opening of the Thaddeus Stevens & Lydia Hamilton Smith Center in a powerful way.

painted a 60-foot mural, We Write Ourselves In, now on permanent display in the space.

Shelby and Jordan Wormley of produced a storytelling film tracing Lancaster’s history and the vision behind this institution, presented at both the ribbon cutting and the gala.

of offered original choreography for three performances across the gala and the block party.

Evita Colón / contributed a commissioned poem, expressed in three distinct forms at the ribbon cutting, gala and block party.

At a moment like this, the work calls for artists who don’t just show up to the story but are part of its continuum. In many ways, these artists carry forward the legacy of Lydia Hamilton Smith and Thaddeus Stevens through their craft, their presence, and their commitment to truth, memory, and community. What was created here won’t disappear when the event ends, it lives on in the space and in the culture of this city.

We are happy to be a community partner of the and looking forward to the work ahead of us.

On February 28th, 2014, Speak to My Soul: A Montage of Voices debuted at a PWI, Shippensburg University, with a cast of over 25 Black students voicing stories of the Black experience using spoken word, song and dance. The show invites the audience to an “open mic where the stories come to life” and they are taken on a spoken word and musical journey through montages of moments and movements in Black history.

Inspired by Ntozake Shange’s coined “Choreopoem,” Evita Colon ( ) wrote, directed and produced this show in multiple cities selling out theatres with an authentic experience that pushed the limitations of how Black stories were told in theatre and how the audience can interact with it.

On this show alone, she has worked with over 100 artists and including adding additional writers and songwriters to the show to evolve the messaging. Many artists have performed for the first time on Speak to My Soul stages.

The production set the tone for the company providing foundational pillars to empower, educate and elevate as Speak to My Soul evolved into a talent agency, production company and cultural strategy firm.

Speak to My Soul has since transformed the landscape of poetry and Black art in Lancaster, PA and beyond with productions, content and events that pushed barriers before Black art was fully welcomed and embraced.

Our Arts Integration framework bridges creative practice with academic standards.

But the impact doesn’t stop at academic alignment.

Students are learning that creativity is not just expression — it is a viable, sustainable career pathway. They are engaging with working artists who model discipline, professionalism, and economic possibility.

While many know us for producing stages and representing talent, our educational work is equally foundational. We are building an ecosystem where artists can teach with rigor and students can see themselves reflected in futures that are both creative and sustainable.

Thank you to our educational partners for piloting this program with us!

We’re currently expanding conversations with schools and institutions interested in implementing integrative arts programming in their spaces. We have artists in from Central Pennsylvania to Philadelphia who will be ready to join your classroom next school year.

Let’s connect.
